Re: Virtual box
- Download the Windows Virtualbox 7.0.10 from https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads or https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Download_Old_Builds
- Make a temporary folder on you computer to hold the extracted files, like C:\VBOXMSI.
- In a regular command prompt window, drag the downloaded exe file. The full path and file name of the exe will appear at the command prompt.
- Type {space}--extract{space}--path{space}
- Drag the temporary folder you made on the command window. The path and name of the folder will appear in the command window.
The command will look like this:Code: Select all
drive:\path\to\VirtualBox-[versionnumber]-Win.exe --extract --path C:\VBOXMSI
- Run the command. The MSI will be in that temporary folder.
Once you have the .msi file, you have to rename it to the file name in the error message:
then point the error message box's browsing feature at where the msi file is located, or put the renamed msi file where the computer expects to find it.mthmzk.....msi
