If you had no guests before, then just deleting the .Virtualbox folder and starting Virtualbox will let you get going.tot94 wrote:I have no guest list because I have unistall VirtualBox before..
I corrected the hosts/guests, since host is your physical computer, guests are the virtual ones. But that's not the point. Guests are "documents", "data". Uninstalling LibreOffice or MicrosoftOffice does not delete your documents, right? Same with VirtualBox. Uninstalling VirtualBox does not delete your guests (your VMs).tot94 wrote:I thought the VirtualBox uninstall would have delete my hosts guests
This worked great for me but seems like a band-aid. Is there a better solution or a reason why this happens? I have uninstalled and reinstalled as admin and this kept happening.tot94 wrote:Log detail :Start tag expected, '<' not found.
