Fixes #76
It prevents running the installation script more than once, avoiding patching an already patched installation by creating a backup folder with patched files instead of the original files. Subsequently, when running the uninstallation script, it would restore the patched files with the backup of patched files, making it no longer possible to restore the original files without reinstalling the VMware software.
Whenever there is a new version of the VMware software, it is advisable to first uninstall the VMware tools to restore the original files.
WARNING: Never delete the backup folders, otherwise it will be impossible to prevent the installation from running more than once, corrupting the backup folder of the original files again.
