Glad you got things going!

virtual box requested msi

Please note that it is actually Windows that is requesting the MSI; the Virtualbox installer is really a Microsoft program that works with the Windows MSI installer database.

Find the MSI file:
Download the identical Windows Virtualbox version installer exe from https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Download_Old_Builds or https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/
Make a temporary folder on you computer to hold the extracted files, like C:\VBOXMSI.
in a regular command prompt window, drag the downloaded exe file. The full path and file name of the exe will appear at the command prompt.
Type {space}--extract{space}--path{space}
Drag the temporary folder you made on the command window. The path and name of the folder will appear in the command window.
The command will look like this:

Code: Select all

drive:\path\to\VirtualBox-[versionnumber]-Win.exe --extract --path c:\VBOXMSI

The MSI will be in that temporary folder.

Note there's one annoying glitch with the MSI installer. A message box which does not have an accompanying icon in the taskbar will display the results of the last command. If you leave this message box open, further runs of commands with the .exe file will not do anything. You will have to find the message box and close it. And if you minimize all the windows with the Desktop Peek tool you may not be able to find it to close it.
