Uninstalling VM VirtualBox on Windows 7

[dj2k]

Hello,
I was wondering how I can uninstall VM VirtualBox? I only needed it for a project from a class I took a few months ago. I tried going to the usual "Programs and Features" to uninstall it but for some reason it just stops as it tries to uninstall it.

What do I do?

Install/uninstall is actually a feature of MSI, the system installer, not of VirtualBox. However, if I had this problem then I'd make sure no VMs are currently running, and I'd disable the VirtualBox Host Only adapter in the host Device Manager.

Hmmm even when I disabled the VirtualBox Adapter, it still does the same thing.

Then it may have nothing to do with VirtualBox at all. Note that the messages says to wait while WIndows configures... This could be a registry problem, a disk space problem, or a network problem. Perhaps if you leave it a while longer it will finish.

That's the problem... it loads but then it just goes back as if nothing happens. That screenshot I put up is when the uninstaller is retracting.

I'm not sure what else to tell you. Since VirtualBox isn't running I don't see how this can be a VirtualBox problem. I would suggest enabling the MSI logging feature (Google for details), and take the results to a Windows help forum.

Or, if it was me I'd probably do an image backup of my PC (for safety) and then I'd manually remove every mention of VBox from the registry, as well as deleting the program and data folders and Vbox*.sys drivers.
