Unable to Confirm Settings

Post by GreggM »

Hello All,

I recently downloaded VirtualBox and I was creating a new machine with specific settings.
When I went to change the settings I was able to change them to my desired choice but unable to confirm them by hitting the "ok" button.
I figured it was because I had an invalid setting so I went to turn that setting off, and I did, yet I was still unable to click the "ok" button to confirm.
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this?
Can you help me?

If there's an invalid setting then the dialog will say "invalid settings detected" near the bottom. If you hover over the "!" icon with the mouse then it will tell you what's wrong. If you give us a clue then we can probably tell you why it's wrong.

You also can't change settings if the VM is still running. Suspended counts as still running.
