Zipped logs fit.
Start the VM from full power off, not save-state. Run until you see the problem happen, then shut down the VM from within the VM OS if possible. If not possible, close the Virtualbox window for the VM with the Power Off option set.
Please right-click the VM in the main Virtualbox window's VM list, choose Show Log. Save the far left tab's log, zip the log file, and post the zip file, using the forum's Upload Attachment tab.
Also, I understand your frustration, you really want this to work. However, there are solutions. Try to relax and see the whole picture. You only started last night, it won't take long to start over if something went wrong. Also, files can be got off the VM's drive if something important is in the VM.

Hello I want to ask that is there any way to find out what file or what thing is corrupt which is stopping the VM to boot because I've accessed the VM files and folders but not getting what is wrong with which file. Please tell If there is any way to find.

I don't see any problem reported inside the VBox.log file. You could try setting Display > Screen > Video Memory to 128 MB, though, and see if it helps.
Other than that, the problem may originate from inside the guest OS, and you should investigate it as if it would happen on a physical PC.

Re: kali linux is not booting up. PLEASE HELP
I also do not see any problems in the log. This is curious:
Like fth0 says, this problem is inside the VM's OS not in the Virtualbox hardware.
Or start over with a new VM and we can help you get files off the broken VM. Please start a new topic if you plan to start over and need help.
Ubuntu-based OS's cannot start the desktop if the OS's disk runs out of space. Maybe Debian (Kali's base) does too? If so, you'll have to fix this via web-searching how using Debian's resources.vansh wrote:Yesterday night I installed mate environment on my kali and after installing it when I logged in to my root account the desktop screen was freezed
