Python Bindings, and missing devices menu

Post by Andrew@USOP »

Running (or trying to) VirtualBox 7.02 on Windows Server 2k19 standard.

1. The install works BUT tells me that python bindings must be installed manually later. No idea what this is, and a cursory search leaves me none the wiser

2. One one VM, ALL the menus file, machine, view, input, devices and help are present. On the other (more critical one) ONLY File, Machine, View and Help are showing
And this despite the settings for both VM's showing that all menus should be being shown.
I am not terribly concerned by this, as it seems superficial.

I am thinking the two issues are related, and I am wondering why I upgraded to 7.02
Anyhow, how do I sort out the Python Bindings thing?

And if insanity takes hold... Is it "painless" to uninstall 7.02, and reinstall 6.1.38 or is that just faffing around to no good purpose?

Asked and answered several times already. Locking this.

If you don't write Python scripts then you don't need the bindings.
