Windows 10 has slowed down the use of my VirtualBoxes

Post by wympy »

Hello friends,
my virtual machine has become tremendously slow.
How can I solve it?

I use VirtualBox 6.0.16 with guest additions installed.
Host system: MacOS High Sierra with 16 GB of RAM
Guest system: Windows 10 Pro 64 bit with 4 Gb of RAM
Attached is the log file

Thanks a lot to those who want to help me

One thing I see, you have 3D acceleration turned on, and the Guest Additions are out of date. Try updating GAs to the version that comes with Virtualbox: use the guest Virtualbox window's Devices menu > Insert Guest Additions CD Image. Run the installer in the Windows 10 CD drive.

If this does not work, shut down the guest and switch the video card (now set to the old VboxVGA) to VboxSVGA. Boot up. log in, let the guest sit running overnight so it can get stabilized and recognize the new video card, then reboot it. How does it act?
