Did you fix it? If yes, how? With the Run-As-Administrator?chrstphrchvz wrote:I encountered this same issue ("Failed to acquire VirtualBox COM object")
BTW, being an administrator and using the Run-As-Administrator is *not* the same thing. Definitely not the same thing, even if you get asked at some point for your password/permission. See: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/librar ... 56996.aspx, and understand that the patch above does exactly that; makes 100% sure that you are indeed run-as-administrator without resorting to the right-click trick...
