I've tried sudo vmware-installer -u vmware-player before, but the app is still there. It can be seen in App Menu, and can EVEN be launched and used, but it is not listed in vmware-installer -l - it only shows VMWare Workstation PRO (i installed it right away after presumably uninstalling Workstation Player). I couldn't find any relevant folders in usr/bin as well. What can i do? I don't want to reinstall Ubuntu just for that.

Turns out Player is a vital component for Workstation - it is considered a component that can not be removed. That is utterly stupid, but what can i do. I deleted the shortcut from App Menu from /usr/share/applications/ and /usr/local/share/applications/, that's better than nothing, I guess.
