VBoxManage "This app can't run on your PC"

Post by Edwardlb21 »

Hey there,

So I am on the way to making my first VM on my new PC.
I have a tutorial (will link later) which I am using, but I get stuck at step 5.
When I try to run the VBoxManage.exe commandline part, a system dialogue appears saying that "This app can't run on your PC, to find a version for your PC, check with the software publisher"

What do I do!? I am on the latest version of VirtualBox and the latest version of Windows 10 (Build 14986).

You have a Windows host? But I see you posted in "Mac OS X Guests".

You had better read Important notice regarding Mac OS X as Guest.

If you have a problem with a legal guest then we'll be happy to help.
