Update!!!!!!

I got Virtual Box to work with Big Sur and here is the easy fix.
Go to this site: https://brew.sh/

Then copy this line into a Terminal Window

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homeb ... install.sh)"

Then install Virtual Box with this line:
brew install --cask virtualbox
You do not need to uninstall your existing Virtual Box

You will need to re-install the Virtual Box Extention Pack from
https://download.virtualbox.org/virtual ... ox-extpack
If you use it.

Bingo!!! Virtual Box Works as advertised ......

I deleted your duplicated topic on the above: duplicates are against forum rules.

Interesting solution, though.

WIth recently Big Sur 11.6 update, I'm no longer able to run VBoxManage in the command line.

Code: Select all

There was an error while executing `VBoxManage`, a CLI used by Vagrant
for controlling VirtualBox. The command and stderr is shown below.

Command: ["startvm", "7ec52ef5-daac-4cfd-a356-26ce50cc5ef9", "--type", "headless"]

Stderr: VBoxManage: error: The virtual machine 'ACS-3636_default_1631546276308_27804' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code 1 (0x1)
VBoxManage: error: Details: code NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005), component MachineWrap, interface IMachine
These steps no longer worked: https://github.com/hashicorp/vagrant/is ... -727812340

Please advice. Is there a workaround? Thank you.
