Suddenly my Ctr+c/Ctrl+v stopped working between host (windows) and client (ubuntu). According to recommendation I was trying to reinstall VM tools.
Uninstall worked fine. But after restart install finished with error:

After one more restart I got error:
Ctr+c/Ctrl+v still not working. How to solve this problem?
UPD:
When system shutdowns I have messages:
UPD2
I did uninstall/install :
sudo apt-get remove open-vm-tools
sudo apt-get remove open-vm-tools-desktop
rm -r /etc/vmware-tools
sudo apt-get install open-vm-tools
sudo apt-get install open-vm-tools-desktop
As result got resized window, but ctrl+c ctrl+v not working. And there are no errors on restart anymore
