E_FAIL (0x80004005)

[YooHoo]

I am getting the following error when I try to run a VM session. It also fails with the same error with headless start. I set hypervisorlaunchtype to off in BCDEdit.
My machine is on Windows 10.0.17134.1425. I installed the Orac VM vbox manager 6.0.24 with admin right and also running it with admin right also.
I would appreciate any help on this.
Thank you in advance.

You definitely have something hacking your dll's, and there's a "SentinelOne" security/nanny-ware installed, that might be doing it. See Diagnosing VirtualBox Hardening Issues

For future reference: please zip your complete log files. A partial log such as that provided is usually not very good for the job.

Actually, SentinelOne is the antivirus software my company uses and as far as I know, none of my co-workers have this problem.

Interesting. If your co-workers are running Virtualbox under SentinelOne without trouble, and your PC is having trouble, I'd recommend going to your boss & the IT dept and have them figure out what is happening. If you can't work because of this, your boss will get it fixed.

FWIW it could be some other software that is causing this. Some causers of hardening trouble don't show themselves in the hardening log.

The problem was resolved after IT Helpdesk person updated my laptop from Windows 10.0.17134.1425 to the latest version(10.0.19041.804).

That's good. A complete reinstall of the whole PC has sometimes enabled coexistence.
