Win7 Pro (64) guest still fails to shutdown since 7.0.16
Windows 7 Pro 64 bit guest hangs on "Shutting down" indefinitely since 7.0.16, problem persists in 7.0.18. Linux host is up to date kernel and VirtualBox. Have to kill the PID to close the session, reboot is out of question as well.

Re: Win7 Pro (64) guest still fails to shutdown since 7.0.16
I believe the issue is with the USB HIDMouse (Per your Log file you see the hang at "Detached 'HidMouse' from port 1 on RootHub#1") in Windows. The USB HIDMouse often will not shut down under Version 7.0.16, for Windows versions older than Win 11. I tested Win10(32) - won't shut down, but Win 8.1(32), Win7(64 - Ultimate), and Win98SE will shut down with no issues. Linux guests do not have this issue.
Possible work around (worked for me):
Select the Windows VM you want to change.
1) In VM Settings choose PIIX3 chipset (I did not test if you already had selected that chipset).
2) In VM Settings choose PS/2 Mouse (not USB Tablet).
2.5) Start up Windows
3) Reboot Windows, to get everything recognized by Windows (to get the changes made above to work)
4) Once it restarts, in Windows Device Manager, uninstall HID Mouse in the Mice section
5) Reboot Windows again.
6) For good measure, reset the VM
That solved my issues with shutdown.

Re: Win7 Pro (64) guest still fails to shutdown since 7.0.16
Thank you very much for the reply @ JKelly.
1) PIIX3 was already selected (default for Win7 guest from initial build long time ago)
2) changed mouse to PS/2
Booted up guest, device mgr showed PS/2 mouse and HID mouse to remove anywhere.
Shutdown still hangs, black screen indefinitely after Logging off, Shutting down,
end of the log now reads:

Re: Win7 Pro (64) guest still fails to shutdown since 7.0.16
Another suggestion:
You are using the current version (7.0.18) of Guest Additions in the Guest VM for Win7.
I have found that Win7 is not happy using recent versions of Guest Additions. However, VirtualBox does not like it when you downgrade Guest Additions, so save a copy of the VM Win7.vdi file BEFORE you make any change to the Guest Additions version. That will allow you to recover relatively easily if VBox throws a new error when you downgrade Guest Additions. That way I have not made matters worse.
I use the Guest Additions from 6.1.42 (from Jan. of 2023, but nothing else from that version of VirtualBox) on Win7 and I never update it when I install the current VirtualBox on the host. I also would run the Windows command "SFC /scannow" (run in a CMD.EXE window as an Administrator) to see if you have another Windows error that can be fixed by Windows.
You can get the old version of Guest Additions from the download file.
"https://download.virtualbox.org/virtual ... 77-Win.exe". Use 7Zip to extract Guest Additions from the file (I don't know how to do this from Linux using p7zip, only from within Windows using 7zip). The file is named "file_VBoxGuestAdditions.iso" You should rename the ISO file as "GuestaddWin7.iso" (so you don't install it on newer Windows by mistake). The run/mount the renamed ISO as a CD in Wn7 and run it inside Win7 to install the old Guest Additions version 6.1.42

Re: Win7 Pro (64) guest still fails to shutdown since 7.0.16
Thanks again JKelly, yes running VBox 7.0.18 with its current GA. Downgrading to GA 7.0.14 along with a good guest backup of same version resulted in same shutdown hang with Host at 7.0.18; downgrading Host to 7.0.14 caused host to lock up unable to switch TTY's or ssh into from other machine. So for now I restored system to current VBox 7.0.18, except using another Win7 backup guest 7.0.16 - I keep a few rsync'd backups. It's not a showstopper as its not a production guest. Just a minor annoyance to have to close the Win7 guest via sigterm PID. Have found almost no info out there with others having same issue so really appreciate your input.
EDIT: got a clean reboot after upgrading GA to 7.0.18 but still have to kill PID for shutdown (7.0.16 was also hanging on reboot)
EDIT: sfc scannow results no errors, no repairs however, guest shutdown clean. Nothing changed here.

Marking this solved though don't know root cause/solution. It's shutdown without issue two times now.
resulted no errors or repairs however, the DISM and CBS logs had a couple lines indicating repairs completed but no mention of corruption. Also virtualbox-host-modules-arch (unsupported here) updated from 7.0.18-1 to 7.0.18-2. Host and guest all current (7.0.18...)
Code: Select all
sfc /scannow

Re: [solved] Win7 Pro (64) guest still fails to shutdown since 7.0.16
Having the same problem with Windows 10 Guest on a Windows 10 Host. Was having major issues with video drivers in 7.0.14, they kept resetting. Upgraded to 7.0.18 and virtual machine will not shutdown, what a pain in the backside!

Re: Win7 Pro (64) guest still fails to shutdown since 7.0.16
Had two normal shutdowns, now back to killing PID.
@ csmccarron
thanks for bug ticket, iirc similar shutdown halt when VBox disconnects USB keyboard
UPDATE problem persists in 7.0.20 and had to install guest additions via Safe Mode.

Re: Win7 Pro (64) guest still fails to shutdown since 7.0.16
Created a ticket. Currently I am running 7.0.14, shutdown is working properly. If I upgrade to 7.0.18 or 7.0.19 and do not install the new extensions, the VM will not shutdown.

Re: Win7 Pro (64) guest still fails to shutdown since 7.0.16
This is still an issue in 7.1.0. Ticket 22089 has been updated with a new log file.

If I uninstall the "Standard OpenHCD USB Host Controller" USB driver from the Guest before shutting it down, the guest will shutdown without issue.
Universal Serial Bus Controllers

It appears that VirtualBox was hanging on to old configurations. To fix I had to disable USB Controller support in the USB Setup screen and click the ok button to save the changes. I then enabled USB Controller support, then selected USB 3.0 (xHCI) Controller and clicked the OK button to save the changes. When I started the VM, I now only have the following in Device Manager. The VM now shutsdown without issue.

Re: Win7 Pro (64) guest still fails to shutdown since 7.0.16
Win7pro 64 guest crashes when attempt to uninstall Standard OpenHCD USB Host Controller, crashes attempt to disable it also.
Reboot shows it still remains in Dev Mgr. Note: this W7 guest doesn't have USB3.0 drivers installed.
Guest does shut down normal when USB is disabled in VBox guest cfg section but then I lose some USB devices of course
Host and Guest are Virtuabox 7.1.0 r164728, including guest additions.

Re: Win7 Pro (64) guest still fails to shutdown since 7.0.16
On my Windows 10 VM, if I enable USB 2, it will no longer shutdown properly.
It makes me wonder if the issues is something related to the fix issued in 7.0.16 below. This is when everything went sideways for me.
VirtualBox 7.0.16 (released April 16 2024)
This is a maintenance release. The following items were fixed and/or added:
VMM: Fixed a guru meditation executing nested-guests using the KVM hypervisor in the guest on Intel hosts (bug #21805)
VMM: Fixed Linux VM crash on some recent AMD models
USB: Fixed issue when EHCI controller was mishandling short packets (bug #20726)
Audio: Introduced general improvements

Re: Win7 Pro (64) guest still fails to shutdown since 7.0.16
Thanks for your research and input csmccarron. I was able to get a clean Uninstall of Standard OpenHCD USB Host Controller via Device Manager with a clean shutdown. I disabled USB in VBox (for the W7 guest), started the guest, and shut down clean as expected clean with USB disabled. Enabled USB2.0 with the Device Filters unchecked in VBox guest, and booted it, Windows did a clean install of the USB Standard OpenHCD USB Host Controller at boot up, and got a clean full shutdown afterwards. Next will see if it remains clean after re-adding the Filters in VBox guest. There are three: TI calculator; CFM reader; and Any USB. So far there were two attempts to Uninstall also Disable that controller in Device Manager that crashed the guest, and one Windows attempt to reinstall the controller at boot up that also crashed the guest and hanged the Host although I could TTY to a different terminal and restore the Host without a hard host reboot. So'll have to see if clean full shutdowns are persistent or not from here. If not then will look at building a custom VBox package and patch the fix into it (regress the 7.0.16 "fix").
Host is Arch Linux.

Re: Win7 Pro (64) guest still fails to shutdown since 7.0.16
Hi, for info, I have had exactly the same 'Black Screen of Death' (BSOD2 ? -TM ) for a while using Ubuntu 22.04 (and now 24.04) as host with Win7 Ultimate as guest. It has not been consistent. Very occasionally it shuts down ok but most times does not. Sometimes I am able to exit it using various combinations of Ctrl-Alt-Del and/or right-clicking on icons etc etc.
I shall try the various USB related and other ideas and report back...
