Windows 10 pro install error

Post by amitjoel »

When installing the latest version of virtual box, the installation ends pre maturally and rolls back the installation. In the end, it says fatal error and closes.
Can somebody help me in getting the installation done . The hyper-v is disabled and i am using VMware in the same machine

Hyper-v and VMware may have an effect on running VirtualBox, but they have no effect on installing VirtualBox.

The usual error is not having sufficient admin rights to install kernel drivers needed by VirtualBox (for USB and network redirection). Always use "Run as administrator" to run the installer. Don't log using the admin account, that isn't the same at all.
