Last night my windows updated to the latest insider build.
Today when I tried to start my VM it crashed, not only virtualbox, but the whole OS with a BSoD (actually it was green)
Stop code: SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION
What failed: winhvr.sys
I already had had issues with hypervisor, so I knew where to look for a solution.
Every other place tells to disable hypervisor platform and enable virtual machine, I did that in hopes it worked this time, but no, same OS crash.
This is what worked: disable both of them
Windows 11 build 2281 crash

Re: Windows 11 build 2281 crash
Thanks for the info! Moving this to Pre-releases, since insider builds aren't supported.
The tutorial also recommends the bcdedit command and what to do if the command does not work. How did those suggestions work out for you?
You might notice in the linked topic the "Attempting fall back to NEM (Hyper-V is active)" tutorial link, where it is stated that turning off things in Windows Features very often does not turn off all things requiring Hyper-V.pe1uca wrote:I already had had issues with hypervisor, so I knew where to look for a solution.

Yeah, if the original topic hadn't been locked I could've explained the topic you just mentioned didn't work at the time.
I'm doing this post in hopes that people that found my original solution worked now know what to do from that configuration since this topic didn't work the first time and people needed to do the exact opposite, enable hyper-v.

VirtualBox never requires Hyper-v. VirtualBox can sometimes suffer Hyper-v being present, but it's a competing platform and never required.pe1uca wrote:people needed to do the exact opposite, enable hyper-v.

I've read that in the rest of the posts, but I don't know what else to tell you, at least I'm aware of other one that required to enable hypervisor for virtualbox to work, if it was disabled ti wouldn't.

Re: Windows 11 build 2281 crash
IIRC, this was a case of Hyper-V being only partially installed, with the consequence of VirtualBox not functioning at all. When Hyper-V is installed completely, VirtualBox can work better than that. But when Hyper-V is not installed at all, VirtualBox usually works best, by a very large margin.
