Hello there,
I just recently switched to linux, but realized too late that I need photoshop here and there (GIMP won't do it), so I decided to go with a windows vm, but had some troubles installing. Here's what I did so far:
1) Downloaded for AMD64 for Ubuntu 18.04 (Mint is a flavour of Ubuntu)
2) Installed the .deb by clicking on it
3) Opened Virtualbox
4) Selected the windows .iso and made several other configurations (changed drag-and-drop settings, etc.)
5) Tried to start the VM, but got "rc=-1908" error
6) Researched about error and found out that this error happens when not installing correctly
7) Tried running sudo /sbin/vboxconfig as suggested as normal user and as root
8. Got same error
9)Tried uninstalling several different ways, but got the error that virtualbox wasn't installed.
10) Came here
Log File is attached,
Thank for any help!

Re: Cant install nor uninstall on Linux Mint
I installed it in linux mint 19 using the software manager and it worked fine, I would try that instead of using the ubuntu 18.04 version and downloading it separately.
