Just opening the manager gui will make the system use 300% cpu even closing it down doesn't close the CPU usage there is not one VM running its cleanly booted system just opening the vboxmanager gui

Such problems on a Linux host may be because of a mixed-up install between official Virtualbox and the Linux fork of Virtualbox pre-installed by the distros.

I'd suggest to uninstall/purge Virtualbox, run the prerequisites https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch02. ... nux-prereq then install Official Virtualbox https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads . You might come up to 7.0.10, some bugs have been found along the way.
