Another problem.

Yes, I will mind. Don't polute the thread with seemingly unrelated issues, don't throw everything into one thread. This is a very specific thread, with a very specific issue, with very specific resolutions. Let's keep it like that...

VBoxManage setextradata global GUI/HidLedsSync 0
Worked for me as well on MacOS 10.15 running Virtualbox Version 6.0.12 r133076 (Qt5.6.3) and VM running Centos (Cloudera Hortonworks HDP Sandbox).

Windows 10 guest crashes after upgrading Mac Mini to macOS 10.15 Catalina

Post by alteh »

Hi,

I've upgraded my Mac Mini (Late 2012) to macOS 10.15 Catalina, and now my Windows 10 guest VM crashes every time I change focus outside of the guest window.

Does anybody else have this problem? Is it a Mac issue, Windows issue, or VirtualBox issue?

I attach the crash report.

Thanks.

Yes, plenty of people. It's an old bug that got into prominence with 10.15. Read the thread that I merged your post with from the beginning...

BTW, your post didn't belong in the "OSX Guests" area. Either in the "Windows Guests", or in the "OSX Hosts" area.

Please, I need help on this: My VM Box crashes a lot of times, too. So I try this command, but now VMBox will not longer start. What can I do? What is the command, to cancel this command?

Pfff... I solved my problem with the command "csrutil disable" in Recovery mode and the beta version from Virtualbox repository. The other command doesn`t work for me.
And one more thing: When I reactivate the SIP the VM doesn`t start... curious.

I´m waiting for the last release.
