Re: Cannot Install Windows 10/11 on VirtualBox
The error message means that you are running a VirtualBox 6.1.35/36 application while having the VirtualBox 6.1.34 (or older) kernel modules installed. A typical sign of a messed up installation. I'd suggest to uninstall all VirtualBox-related packages and only install the Oracle-provided VirtualBox 6.1.36.

Yes. Either the correct one (*) of those containing "Debian" in their name, or the one with "Linux_amd64.run" at the end, which should work on most Linux distributions.
(*) Depending on the Debian version's codename that your Kali Linux is based on.

So I got a missing dependency on the installation but it looks installed, but now when I try to run virtualbox I get this error message:fth0 wrote:Yes.

Code: Select all
The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either there is no module
available for the current kernel (5.18.0-kali5-amd64) or it failed to
load. Please recompile the kernel module and install it by
sudo /sbin/vboxconfig
You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.
