Your guest was save-stated. It had a "CRITICAL_STRUCTURE_CORRUPTION" error and guru-meditated.

If you just updated Virtualbox, you need to do one of two things:

If you really need the unsaved data in the saved state, you need to uninstall the present version of Virtualbox and reinstall the version you had before, then you can start the guest, shut it down normally, then re-upgrade.

-or-

If you do not need the unsaved data, right-click the guest in the main Virtualbox window's guest list and choose Discard Saved State. Then you should be able to start the guest from what is essentially a power-plug-pulled state.

Thank you for you answer. I will try the second method. That's true that I upgraded virtualbox with the machine with saved state. So I will see how it goes.
