Virtualbox installation issue on Mac OS Catalina

Post by varun121190 »

I am trying to install Virtualbox 6.1.0 on Mac OS Catalina.
The installation is not successful.
I read many blogs to enable the installation in Security in System preferences, but I am not getting that option at all in Security.

Moving to "OSX Hosts" from "Using VirtualBox".

Don't. Read Installation fails on 10.13.x, 10.14.x (rc=-1908) and follow the instructions.
Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.

I found a useful link and working fine
So step is 1st install your virtual box let it be failed and exit.
oose “Security & Privacy” and go to the ‘General’ tab within the Security preference panel, then click the lock button and enter the administrator password
At the bottom of the Security General section, look for the message stating “System software from developer ‘Oracle America, Inc’ was blocked from loading” and click the “Allow” button
again reinstall you will get success
