I had the same problem with 5.1.14 version on Windows Server 2012 R2. Opening the Virtual Box as Administrator fixed the issue.

I'm sorry, but you definitely didn't have the same issue as a 7 year old thread with a light-years apart VirtualBox version. No sir.

VirtualBox does not need to be run-as-administrator. If it does, something is definitely wrong with your setup. If you want to continue, please open a new thread where we can talk about this, because I'm locking this one. Too old to be revived, let it die...
