Extension Pack Will Not Install

Post by caltrop »

Unable to open & install:
VirtualBox 5.2.12 Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack

The package will NOT open.

Error Message:
Could not open 'Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-5.2.12.vbox-extpack'
The package might be corrupted or you are not allowed to open the file. Check the permissions of the file.

I am the Admistrator & have FULL access to ALL files in the user directory.
I did not have this problem with VBox 5.1.

Did you check the checksum to see that you don't have a corrupt download?
Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.
