Using PCTrans to move VirtualBox

[-dan z-]

I am in the process of moving (duplicating) my programs and data to
my new Dell from my old Dell. Both Win-10 Pro, 21H2.

The problem is with VirtualBox. I used Easus PC-Trans to move most of
the stuff, and that worked well for most things. Firefox has all my
bookmarks and passwords; Mailclient has all my settings and all my
saved emails, etc.

VirtualBox transferred, and kept my settings... but NOT my virtual XP
setup. I have followed various website recommendations to move this
over, but so far nothing has worked.

The VirtualBox log shows several errors, most of which I don't
understand. So here is the log from the point of the first occurrence
of the word "error":

______(Following is the log_________
24b0.1ab0: Error opening VBoxDrvStub: STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND
24b0.1ab0: supR3HardenedWinReadErrorInfoDevice: NtCreateFile ->
0xc0000034
24b0.1ab0: Error -101 in supR3HardenedWinReSpawn! (enmWhat=3)
24b0.1ab0: NtCreateFile(\Device\VBoxDrvStub) failed: 0xc0000034
STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND (0 retries)

Driver is probably stuck stopping/starting. Try 'sc.exe query vboxdrv'
to get more information about its state. Rebooting may actually help.

Note: I did that. The result of the sc.exe command was "the specified
service does not exist as an inhstalled service." Since then I have
done a new install of VirtualBox twice, but nothing has changed this
error.

End of log. Any ideas? This is important to me, as that XP box
contains several years of financial data using software I wrote myself
using FoxPro. Thus XP to run FoxPro. If nothing else, it would be good
to just be able to move the data files out of it.

Uninstall Virtualbox and reboot.
Go to "C:\Windows\System32\drivers", look for any files called 'Vbox*.sys' (there could be up to 5) and delete them.
Reboot again.
If you have any 3rd-party security or anti-malware software, disable the living daylights out of it for a moment.
Reinstall Virtualbox using right-click-Run-As-Administrator.

In addition to scottgus1's suggestions, could you confirm that the Virtual Machine Folder(s) have been successfully copied/transferred from their original location on the old pc/laptop to the same location on the new pc/laptop. Transfer software of the type you've used usually only transfers software applications and their settings files, not any of the data created with software unless there is an included data backup/restore module. Your VM's are program data. and won't be recognised as part of the software installation
