Failed to import appliance - E_INVALIDARG (0x80070057)

Post by Jacob Klein »

Hey folks,

I recently tried to use Import Appliance, on an .ova file from:
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/m ... tools/vms/
... specifically: MSEdge.Win10.VirtualBox - Version 1809 - Build 17763.379 - October 2018 Update (VM Build 20190311)

When I try this on host:
Windows 10 v1903 Build 18362.53
Oracle VirtualBox v6.0.5 Test Build 129923
... I get:
Failed to import appliance F:\Temp\MSEdge - Win10.ova.
Result Code: E_INVALIDARG (0x80070057)


There are no other logs. Hyper-V and Sandbox are both turned off, I believe.
This should be easily reproducible for anyone in the Release Preview ring.
This works correctly when host is Windows 10 v1809.

Any chance we could get this fixed before v1903 goes public?
