Virtual box crashes on Windows host.

[multiOS]

Yes, of course

@multiOS:
Sorry. I felt that I had to correct you, to keep the OP from an unnecessary search for Fast Startup. But you can see it positively: You made me explain the reasoning for the Shift key to be held, for the benefit of future readers.

This problem persists.

This article pretty much says it is not going to work since my Build in not 1803: https://us.informatiweb.net/tutorials/i ... -time.html

Code: Select all

I can see the hypervisorlaunchtype is Off.

My only options are if I'm happy with slow or go VMWare or HyperV

[mpack]

The correct solution has already been given, repeating the question will not change that. I don't really have the time to parse third party articles.

I can assure you that VMWare's requirements will be no different. As to Hyper-v, by all means try it, perhaps it will suit you.
