VMware Workstation Permission Issue
-
Are you using the term "root" to mean / or /root?
-
You do not want VMs in the / path. Make a folder there called /data or /vms or something sensible. Then put the VMs there.
-
I have tried in /path and make directory as linux in /path and tried to install vm but the same permission error comes

You will still need to do a chown on the directory to make it owned by you.
But again, abandon VMware Workstation. This isn't going to be a good choice for you.

14.04 is quite old. 14.10 and 15.04 both replaced it and 15.10 is about to release.

I thought that you were no longer there and doing work at home according to the other thread.
