Hmm, I'd say remove everything vbox you've got installed:
Code: Select all
apt purge --autoremove virtualbox*"
and then reinstall it
Morning GM, I noted that " mark at the end of the first command and left that out as I assumed it a typo. Anyway it worked and then ran the second command and all seemed to go well. However, when I selected the vbox I have now got a second error.
Code: Select all
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Windows 10 VM.
Implementation of the USB 2.0 controller not found!
Because the USB 2.0 controller state is part of the saved VM state, the VM cannot be started. To fix this problem, either install the 'Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack' or disable USB 2.0 support in the VM settings.
Note! This error could also mean that an incompatible version of the 'Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack' is installed (VERR_NOT_FOUND).
Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component: ConsoleWrap
Interface: IConsole {872da645-4a9b-1727-bee2-5585105b9eed}
I had previously installed that so assummed that the first command had removed it and re-installed the extension pack and this time it vbox booted fine. I did try to do this first of all by terminal using this command
Code: Select all
apt install Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack
but that did not work; tried leaving the Oracle and then the VM bit off but neither of them worked. Out of interest what would have been the proper terminal command for that. I Finished up doing through VM Virtualbox.
