current mint 18 inacessable?

[jbsone]

Hello - All,
Runtime error opening 'C:\Users\jbsone\VirtualBox VMs\mint 18\mint 18.vbox' for reading: -102 (File not found.).
F:\tinderbox\win-5.2\src\VBox\Main\src-server\MachineImpl.cpp[741] (long __cdecl Machine::i_registeredInit(void)).
Result Code:
E_FAIL (0x80004005)
Component:
MachineWrap
Interface:
IMachine {85cd948e-a71f-4289-281e-0ca7ad48cd89}
This has stumped me completely...I've been running mint for months...Never hadthis problem...Is this a virtualbox error or mint.. I'm t hinking it might be vb?
Thanks for help/suggestions,
John in Dallas

Looks like a VB error, but the 'file not found' error could mean something else. Did you recently upgrade the system/VB software? What version of Windows is your host? My Linux repo just upgraded me to 5.2.18 today.

Thanks for your response,
running win 7-64...Upgraded vb when it said new version available..no other software installations. vb upgrade went very well and this mint version ran perfectly for months.l..I'll try and reinstall vb perhaps that will help..

You may need to update the extension pack of VB also.

Surprised nobody pointed to the obvious explanation though: That file is actually missing (check in explorer).
