thank you from a TW user. I was not able to switch the image over toe KVM so this is perfect. Can't get it to run unless I change to USB1 (did add the extension pack) but for now that is fine.

so thanks again for this work around

Thanks for the kind words. Mind sharing the error details?

It is important to use https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-6.1.97-140056.vbox-extpack which was rebuild early this week after raising this issue.

I had the 140023, though that was the last one. yours works fine.

now for a new stab to get it into KVM, but going on holiday tomorrow so will have to wait 3 weeks :) I think its a driver issue between the running win10 on VB and the one on KVM, since I can let windows do a full repair/reinstall but of course you lose everything.

thank you again for this.

BTW; I've synced Larry's tree with VB 6.1.13 now. Expect some downgrade activities on update.

Awaits testing..
