drm:vmw_host_log_printf vmwgfx Error Failed to send host log message
Hello everyone. I'm a new kali user. I watched and applied the videos in the link for the wifi card installation. Later on, kali in the virtual box was corrupted and won't open. I've been searching for 2 days and couldn't find a solution. I'm hard on myself.
The error message header is :drm:vmw_host_log_printf vmwgfx Error Failed to send host log message
Edit:Since I am a new member, the system does not allow me to add a link.

Please provide a VM log file. Make sure the VM is fully shut down, then right click it in the manager UI. Select "Show Log" and save "VBox.log" (no other file) to a zip file. Attach the zip here.
But be warned. It looks to me like you have a problem with Kali, not a problem with VirtualBox.

Re: drm:vmw_host_log_printf vmwgfx Error Failed to send host log message
First, you are using the Debian distros own build of VirtualBox, not the official version we support here.
Next, you installed a mismatched extension pack. This is not allowed.

You should install the official VirtualBox software and matching extension pack.

Re: drm:vmw_host_log_printf vmwgfx Error Failed to send host log message
Kali Linux is based on Debian Linux.
You can ignore the vmwgfx error messages, which are a red herring.
My educated guess is that you don't have a VirtualBox-specific problem. The (virtual) disk contents of your guest OS are probably damaged, and you'll have to use the guest OS emergency methods or restore the guest OS from an earlier backup.

The data is good, thanks, timur, but let's not go around resurrecting old topics to post it.
