Note to anyone else running into this; you can try running vagrant plugin update to see if that fixes things. Also, if you use the VMware plugin, you may need to reinstall the VMware plugin.

@geerlingguy weird, on update it meant everything is up 2 date, but uninstall and install get a new plugin version.

``` .sh
xps13 ~ schreiner $ vagrant plugin update
Updating installed plugins...
All plugins are up to date.

``` .sh
xps13 ~ schreiner $ vagrant plugin list
vagrant-bindfs (0.4.3)
vagrant-hostmanager (1.6.1)
vagrant-share (1.1.5, system)
vagrant-vmware-workstation (4.0.1)

``` .sh
xps13 ~ schreiner $ vagrant plugin uninstall vagrant-vmware-workstation
Uninstalling the 'vagrant-vmware-workstation' plugin...

``` .sh
xps13 ~ schreiner $ vagrant plugin install vagrant-vmware-workstation
Installing the 'vagrant-vmware-workstation' plugin. This can take a few minutes...
Installed the plugin 'vagrant-vmware-workstation (4.0.5)'!

@geerlingguy both, virtualbox and vmware are usable again after the update. thank you

[biemond]

they released a new vmware plugin 4.0.5 which solved for me the linked run startup error on vmware fusion (not pro)

[aleksijohansson]

@dominikzogg Thanks for the info! Uninstalling and reinstalling the vagrant-vmware-fusion plugin fixed the issue for me.

This may be closed, but there's still a bug in the vagrant code for updating both vagrant and the provider.
