VirtualBox now always restarts host

Post by NelsonF »

I've been using VirtualBox for years and then today (after some time away and installing trial editions of some Android Developer tools, along w/ various Win 10 updates) every time I start to run a VirtualBox session of Linux or WinXP or even creating a new one, my host computer restarts. Any help would be very appreciated.

I've unistalled all the other developer software, uninstalled and reinstalled VirtualBox and still it reboots every time after creating the box's window (so no loading of any OS is seen).

Here is my log file after a fresh install trying to create a new virtual box:

Code: Select all

They may have triggered the activation of Hyper-V in Windows 10. Lately, the combination of having Hyper-V active, along with VirtualBox makes the host get a BSOD. Disable Hyper-V from the Windows Features and everything should return to normal.
Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.
Do NOT reply with the "QUOTE" button, please use the "POST REPLY", at the bottom of the form.
If you obfuscate any information requested, I will obfuscate my response. These are virtual UUIDs, not real ones.
