I've been unable to install Guest Additions on my Windows 10 VirtualBox VM. I keep getting the following:

Guest Additions are installed in the Guest, not the host. Are you quite sure that's what you're doing?

Please post a VM log file. With the VM fully shut down, right click it in GUI. Select "Show Log" and save "VBox.log" (ONLY) to a zip file. Attach the zip here.

lol... um, yes, I'm sure that's what I'm doing.

I deleted the log files, booted up, tried to install Guest Additions, shut down. Here's the VBox.log file contents for that activity: (attached)

SOLUTION:

After reading the following thread: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=64251

These steps allowed GA to install successfully:
  • Uninstalled guest additions (x64 in my case) via command prompt. (IMPORTANT KEY!)
  • Shut down the VM.
  • In the VM's settings > Display > Acceleration: Make sure "Enable 3D Acceleration" is checked.
  • Run VM
  • Run Guest Additions installer. (By this point I had the installer files copied to my desktop, and ran that in Admin mode, not sure if that's at all relevant though.)
  • Cheer at the monitor when "Success" shows. ;)

Thanks, that solved my problem for my old WinXPSP3 x86 VM.
It runs with VirtualBox 6.0.12 and I was obliged to switch the graphic adpater to VBoxSVGA to make the setup of guest Additions without failing

yes, it appears the only way to complete a successful guest additions install is to use the VBoxSVGA. 6.0.14 as well

This is the only thread that I've seen that claims that you have to have a specific GPU for the guest in order to make it work. Something's not right with the guest methinks...
