VirtualBox saying that hardware assisted virtualization is on but system doesn't support, I disabled

[Shaunak Nandigam]

I am trying to use Ubuntu and i put the ISO file and everything but there is no option to disable virtualization in System→Acceleration. It says virtualization is off on the host computer which i'm fine with because i don't need virtualization but even though i disabled virtualization in system→acceleration it is still coming

Hardware virtualization is a requirement for certain VMs, you can't disable it if you want the VM. The option no longer even exists in the API, so I have no idea what option you disabled.

And in VirtualBox, hardware support for virtualization is a requirement for all VMs - period. Software virtualization has been discarded.
