[Solved] Can't install VirtualBox 4.3.14 Networking on Win7

[AltairAC]

OS: Windows 7 SP1 x86
VB: VirtualBox-4.3.14-95030-Win
AV: Kaspersky Internet Security 2013

I can't install the Networking feature. If I disable it in the installer, the installation works fine but if I try to install it, the installer copies everything (even the shortcuts are created on the desktop) but then the installer starts to roll back everything. I tried installing it with Kaspersky closed but it still gives me an error. I tried to run the installation with Admin privileges and "told" Kaspersky that it is a harmless piece of software but still no luck.

I attached:
setupapi.app.log
setupapi.dev.log
VBoxInstallLog.txt

I tried other versions:
VirtualBox 4.3.12 and VirtualBox 4.2.26 don't work but VirtualBox 4.3.10 works perfectly!

I tried to download and install VirtualBox 4.3.16. I got the same error. I enabled logging and analyzed the log by myself. I found the error code:

Code: Select all

0x8004a029

I googled it and found this:

So I deleted:

Code: Select all

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Network\MaxNumFilters 

restarted my computer and installed VBox without any issues.

Problem solved.

Hey, great detective work! And thanks for sharing your findings! I'm sure other users will benefit from this. One little thing; could you change the title of the original post to "[SOLVED] Can't..." so it's easier to spot?

It seems that a moderator already changed the title for me but I'll try to remember it for the next time.
