Re: No text on virtualbox gestor
Actually there is text there, but it's really tiny.
- Uninstall Virtualbox and reboot.
- Go to "C:\Windows\System32\drivers", look for any files called 'Vbox*.sys' (there could be up to 5) and delete them.
- Reboot again.
- If you have any 3rd-party security or anti-malware software, disable the living daylights out of it for a moment.
- Reinstall Virtualbox using right-click-Run-As-Administrator.

Re: No text on virtualbox gestor
While the VirtualBox Manager is not running, open a Windows Command Prompt and execute the following command(s), replacing "<n>" by a value between 20 and 200 (default is 100):
Please report back if it helps.
Code: Select all
cd "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox"
VBoxManage setextradata global "GUI/FontScaleFactor" "<n>"

Re: No text on virtualbox gestor
Which values did you try, and which value gave a good result? I'm asking to get an idea about the (unconfigured) initial value.

I've configured with default value= 100 ( enough value ) and value= 200 and it gives the same font size.
