virtualbox.org

Hi, I'm deploying Virtualbox v4.2.12-84980 on multiple Windows 7 x64 SP1 computers. That part is working correctly. The problem now is that when a new user is created, or even an existing one sometimes, Virtualbox just won't launch or the user get errors when trying to start a vm. So I'm guessing that when Virtualbox is installed it created specials files that the users need to have access to in order to launch Virtualbox properly. This is the command line that I use to launch the installation as an administrator: msiexec.exe /i VirtualBox-4.2.12-r84980-MultiArch_amd64.msi /qn REBOOT=ReallySuppress. I know that by default Virtualbox use the property ALLUSERS=1 so it's a per-system installation if the user as administrator credentials. So how am I supposed to make this work? I need to have any existing users of a computer and any new future users (which could or not have administrator privileges) to be able to launch and use Virtualbox.

Thanks in advance for the help!

We would need to see the exact errors you're having, either verbatim copy/paste or a screenshot.

Some device drivers, and the software itself, might be installed on a system-wide basis, but I don't think the whole thing is. There's a COM service which I think only gets started up per user profile, and there are the "<userdoc>\.VirtualBox" and "<userdoc>\VirtualBox VMs" which definitely get created in individual user folders.
