Re: Unable to start a VM with Ubuntu
It looks like VirtualBox was not installed properly, for this user. Run the installer again, this time run it using "Run as administrator". Do NOT run the installer while logged into the Admin user account - that is a separate thing entirely.
Re: Unable to start a VM with Ubuntu
I'm seeing the same thing.
I've uninstalled, rebooted and reinstalled with "Run as administrator" a couple of times with no success.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled multiples but no success
Re: Unable to start a VM with Ubuntu
Seeing the same thing. I have uninstalled and installed as administrator twice. Log file attached.

Re: Unable to start a VM with Ubuntu
Please try rolling back to 6.1.26 and matching EP. https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Download_Old_Builds_6_1
6.1.28 has a couple bugs.
