Hello
My problem is this. Kali Linux works just fine on virtualbox on my Desktop. However, when I try it on my laptop, I get an error saying failed to import appliance. Can anyone help?

The VboxSVC.log found in C:\Users\{you}\.Virtualbox (note the period in the name) may show the error.
Try the import again. If it fails, zip & post the VboxSVC.log, using the forum's Upload Attachment tab.

One other thing to try is to copy the whole VM's folder to the laptop directly then register the VM by double clicking its .vbox file.
This copies the VM without going though the Import process.
