[Solved] Cannot install Virtual box extensions on Win10 host
Posted: 29. Nov 2018, 05:51
Hello
I have the file:
Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-5.2.22.vbox-extpack
When I double click it, it runs and after clicking install and license agreement etc, it fails with:
I understand that I may need administrator rights and I do have the correct details for this but:
I cannot find any way or option (as in right click and 'run as administrator') to do this.
I tried renaming the file to a .exe but that did not work either.
Does anyone have a suggestion on how to get this working?
Best regards
