Re: I can't run Virtualbox anymore on my pc
I AM ALSO HAVING THIS ISSUE!
So frustrating. I've been using virtualbox every week for the last two months and it suddenly decided to stop working.
Right now I have it booting but it's come to a near standstill. The console screen that loads all the commands as it boots is loading so slow that its completing ONE CHARACTER per minute.
It'll take this literal weeks to finish booting.
Does anyone have a fix for this??

Not likely, with no zipped VM log provided.Aclobes wrote: Does anyone have a fix for this??
I will say that incredibly slow VMs on Windows hosts usually means you have Hyper-v installed and taking 99% of VM resources. This too should have been evident from a basic look around these forums.
See HMR3Init: Attempting fall back to NEM (Hyper-V is active)

I believe Klapaucius§'s problem is different than Aclobes's. Aclobes's VM is slow. Klapaucius§ cannot even get the main GUI to open. Unfortunately I don't know how to troubleshoot Klapaucius§'s problem.

If this interpretation of the initial post is correct, I'd suggest to ask for the global log files ...scottgus1 wrote:Klapaucius§ cannot even get the main GUI to open. Unfortunately I don't know how to troubleshoot Klapaucius§'s problem.

Good idea, let's try it!fth0 wrote:I'd suggest to ask for the global log files ...
Klapaucius§, Please go to C:\Users\{youraccountname} and zip the entire ".Virtualbox" folder. Post the zip like you did the screenshot above.

Re: I can't run Virtualbox anymore on my pc
Thanks!
There is only one file in the folder, a VboxSVC.log, and the last line is:
First please uninstall Virtualbox, reboot, then reinstall by right-clicking the Virtualbox installer and choose Run as Administrator, even if you already are using an Admin account. See what happens.
If Virtualbox does not run correctly, and you have other software installed, then try uninstalling any other software that uses the USB system or filters USB. Re-install Virtualbox with Run As Admin, and see what happens.

Does this mean you have only the host OS and Virtualbox, no other software?Klapaucius§ wrote:i reinstalled the OS, and IT DID THE SAME.

Re: I can't run Virtualbox anymore on my pc
If the VBoxSVC.log file really is the only file in the .VirtualBox folder, then we're indeed hanging very early (neither the global configuration file VirtualBox.xml nor the VirtualBox Manager log file selectorwindow.log have been written to disk yet).
The VBoxSVC.log file shows that you're trying to run VirtualBox 5.2.44 on Windows 10 20H2, and the VirtualBox version predates the Windows version. @scottgus1: Is this combination known to work?
Besides investigating possible USB problems, the Windows Event Viewer might also be worth a look ...

Re: I can't run Virtualbox anymore on my pc
I dont know why it show the 5.2.44 file, the current installed version is the 6.1.18. I've previously installed the 5.2.44 and even other version a couple of the 5's and a lot from the 6's.

Re: I can't run Virtualbox anymore on my pc
Ok, that explains why it doesn't work now, because VirtualBox 6.1.18 is not expected to work together with VBoxSVC 5.2.44. I don't know if the following is the best way to clean up, but it should work IMO:
Uninstall VirtualBox 6.1.18 and reboot. Install VirtualBox 5.2.44 and reboot. Uninstall VirtualBox 5.2.44 and reboot. Install VirtualBox 6.1.18 and reboot.
Uninstall VirtualBox 6.1.18 and reboot. Install VirtualBox 5.2.44 and reboot. Uninstall VirtualBox 5.2.44 and reboot. Install VirtualBox 6.1.18 and reboot.
