I have installed Virtualbox, however, when I begin the installation for Windows 10, it takes me to a page that ask you to select from 3 different Windows OS's, but they are all the same. So when I select the first one it then takes me to the screen with the language, Time Zone, et. I click next and it takes me to a screen where Cortana begins speaking and you are to select the options, this is where the VM closes and a window opens with data on it and a button at the bottom that reads, "re-load".
After clicking re-load, it gives an error message that reads:
You must specify a machine to start, using the command line.
Usage: VirtualBoxVM --startVm<name|UUID>
Start the VirtualBox Virtual machine with the given name or unique identifier (UUID).
Beneath the message above are two buttons, "copy" and "Ok"
If I click"re-load", I begin the process all over again. I cannot past the first the Cortana screen mentioned above.

Re: VM Windows 10 Installation Error
My guess is that you have tripped over a bug in VirtualBox that has caused the VM process to abort. The 'reload' is simply restarting the VM process but NOT passing it the required arguments.
To workaround this you could try:
1. In the VM settings, go to the Audio tab and disable (i.e. uncheck) the control.
2. Restart your VM and hopefully you will be able to finish your install.
