see Diagnosing VirtualBox Hardening Issues last paragraph in post 3 and post 4. Exit Code 1

Some 3rd-party security software is blocking Virtualbox. As a test, Uninstall all security or web-safe-browsing software. Let Windows Defender run, and try Virtualbox again.

OK, the new error means that Either your computer's "virtualization technology" (VT-x / AMD-V / SVM) is not on in the BIOS or Hyper-V is active. Go through everything in:

I have a 64bit host, but can't install 64bit guests
