[Solved] E_FAIL (0x80004005)

I'm using VirtualBox on Windows 7 and trying to use Kali Linux as a virtual machine but I keep getting this error:
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Kali Linux.
Failed to load R0 module C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox/VMMR0.r0: Signature #2/3: Expected at least 2 valid paths, not 1.: \Device\HarddiskVolume2\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VMMR0.r0 (VERR_SUP_VP_UNEXPECTED_VALID_PATH_COUNT).
Failed to load VMMR0.r0 (VERR_SUP_VP_UNEXPECTED_VALID_PATH_COUNT).
Result Code: E_FAIL (0x80004005)
Component: ConsoleWrap
Interface: IConsole {872da645-4a9b-1727-bee2-5585105b9eed}
I have tried looking at COUNTLESS threads and videos but I cannot seem to get it to work. I'm not the greatest with computers and because of COVID-19, I\ve decided to do something productive on my PC. Downloaded an app on my phone that teaches ethical hacking and they want me to use VirtualBox and kali Linux EXCLUSIVELY. So, now I'm stuck with a virtual machine that isn't working.
WHAT CAN I DO TO FIX THIS ISSUE? Pleas help!
