Hi I need help
I tryed to install Virtualbox for Windows 10. I have already tryed the versions 6.1.18 and 6.1.16 but at both versions i get stuck by 70% of the installation. All is fine, i clicked yes by the intermet message and so one but now i stuck. I triyed both versions on SSD and HDD twice. I installed for 1 hour and broke the istallation up. after i closed the setup via taskmanager because it doesn't work normally, I restart my pc. After restart the Folder and the programm were disinstalled. before all were ready tu use and i can start the programm. Please help me and sorry for my english.

the Virtualbox installer is really a Microsoft program that works with the Windows MSI installer database. Google for how to enable MSI logging, then try the installation again. If it fails, please post the log as a zip file.

I have two other links to suggest. See also if you have any corrupted MSI database files:

• Repair MSI (Windows Installer) 2.8.8.
• Windows Repair 4.5.1 (includes the above).

I am still stuck at Progress after I repaired twice and I don't know where I find the log because all I have downloaded is gone and I broke up the setup and not the setup crash. What can I do? I want to run kali Linux to learn ethical hacking. How can I give more information to you, because you can't help me if you don't know exactly whats the problem is.

What can I give you, that you can help me better? It didn't work.

You will need a local person who knows computers to help you. Show the person the links above.

I know computers but at this thing i stuck but ok i do what you think is right and if it doesent work i try on another system if it works my pc is broken if it doesn't work i try it on the pc of my friend and if this doesent work i kill my selfe.

We really can't fix installation problems. Virtualbox is not running yet when the installer is running. The installer is a Microsoft program, not a Virtualbox program.

The links above are for fixing the Microsoft installer system.

I have the MSI Log file but where can I send this to you (because the file is 3'622 KB big) or can I send it to the windows support?

If you need help with the MSI installer, you need a Windows expert, not a VirtualBox person.

I'll try to see if the log has something we can work with.
