1. First auto remove the open vm tools. sudo apt-get autoremove open-vm-tools
2. Now right click the vm and click reinstall vmware tools. It will appear now from grayed state.
3. Now you will see vmware-tools-distrib directory under devices. Now you need to extract it under Desktop. After extracted you will see the vmware-tools-distrib directory on the desktop. Going that directory you will see vmware-install.pl script. Give a execute permission on that file i.e. chmod +x vmware-install.pl
4. Now run the script by issuing this command: sudo ./vmware-install.pl
Then reboot the vm.
5. After reboot, install sudo apt-install open-vm-tools-desktop
6. Now again reboot the vm. Now copy paste will work.
