[Solved] Error message I can't install VirtualBox 6

I'm trying to install VirtualBox 6 unfortunately I had an old version which I no longer have on my computer anymore. When I try and install the new version I get an error message that says " Click OK to try again or enter alternate path to a folder containing the installation package VirtualBox-4.3.12.r93733-MultiArch_amd64.msi" Does someone have the install file so I can install VirtualBox 6 or have another way I can install VirtualBox 6?

I have also tried the options on this post which didn't work for me. viewtopic.php?f=6&t=64973#p306090

Look in the user manual for instructions on how to unpack the .MSI files from the installer exe wrapper.

Download the appropriate installer then use the unpacked MSI to get past the error.
