I've got some trouble with a fresh install upon my brand new HP Elitebook.
I'm trying to build a lab and I've installed Virtualbox Version 5.2.0 r118431 (Qt5.6.2) with standard settings. After that I've installed the actual Extension Pack which states version 5.2.0r118431.
After creating a Windows Server 2012R2 VM and trying to fire it up I'm getting the error message:
I've looked into the VBoxHardening.log and it shows lacksWinVerify Trust for the kernel32.dll.The virtual machine 'SRV-DC01' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code -1073741819 (0xc0000005). More details may be available in 'C:\Users\marku\VirtualBox VMs\SRV-DC01\Logs\VBoxHardening.log'.
Fehlercode:
E_FAIL (0x80004005)
Komponente:
MachineWrap
Interface:
IMachine {85cd948e-a71f-4289-281e-0ca7ad48cd89}
What I've done so far:
- completely reinstalled VirtualBox (deinstalled - rebootet the system - installed fresh)
- checked my antivirus solution (I'm using Windows Defender) and created an exception for the kernel32.dll a few steps later (which hasn't got any effect regarding the error message)
- run an [command]sfc /scannow[/command] with no problems found
- deinstalled the expansion pack and tried to fire the vm up - same error
- checked the details of the kernel32.dll - a certificate is attached and it is still ok
- noticed that "HP Sure Click" (a security software which is part of the standard installation of my notebook) isn't compatible with VirtualBox (as stated by an error message of the software after booting) - deactivated it completely - no luck... the error persists
As a sidenote: the same Virtualbox installation on my main computer runs without any problems.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
