VM session was aborted on W10 host, WXP VM

[oferlaor]

Since upgrading to VBox 6.0 (tried 6.04 same issue), when I load an XP VM on my Windows 10 host I am getting E_FAIL (0x80004005) errors. The errors only occur if I use the temporary saved machine state. If I load the whole VM from a powered down state, it works fine.

The same thing happens on another W7 VM...

Both are giving me the same hardening error: it looks like the error is coming from "C:\WINDOWS\system32\wintab32.dll"

Everything worked perfectly normal on VBOX 5.X

This says that the hardening checks are all passing correctly. There is a known issue with restoring saved states under certain circumstances under VirtualBox 6.0.x. See the discussion Version 6.0.0 Final Snapshot Bug and ticket #18265 Win7 in VB 6.0.0 fails on resume on 97% for more details and some workarounds you can try.

Tried the fixes proposed in the posts: changing the graphics controller and IO APIC and mouse controller.

No change. I still can't save current state and go back to it. When I load it I get 97% and then E_FAIL.
