Insider Builds 20215.1000 require VirtualBox uninstall

Post by MarcinB »

Hi.
Insider Builds of Windows 10 64 bit 2004 build 20215.1000 require VirtualBox uninstall. I did that, I removed all virtual machine files and folders (that I am aware off), and from the last three builds. I cannot update Insiders Build of Windows 64 bit, as Windows Update asks me to uninstall VirtualBox as incompatible. I have Hyper-V on that machine, and I know that Virtual Box is incompatible with Hyper-V. For VirtualBox to run I need to execute in elevated command prompt:
bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off
reboot and to get Hyper-V back (to have Docker running) I need to execute:
bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype auto
and reboot.
I tried Insiders Build update in both states and both give the instruction to uninstall VirtualBox, which is not there (see attachment and below - Installation is Spanish, but dialogs are English - sorry for Spanish).

Are there leftovers of VirtualBox in registry or somewhere else to remove them to get Insiders build installed? Any other solution?
Kind regards
