Description
When upgrading Virtual Box from V5.0 platform to V5.1, I have issue with the Digital license being invalid for Window 10 guests. Once the guest additions are installed I get a message that this copy of Windows is not active. When trying out the activation trouble shooter it prompts you to go to the Store to buy another copy.
I have tried both 5.1.0 and 5.1.2. The Host OS is Windows 10 Pro 64 bit, while the two clients are Windows 10 Pro 32 bit preview versions.

Same problem here after upgrading from 5.1.0 to 5.1.10: Windows activation is lost in guest systems (on a windows host).

No idea. When you go back to 5.0 (which exact version btw), is the Windows warning about not being activated still there?
