VERR_NEM_VM_CREATE_FAILED with Win10 10.0.18362

[supra]

dear oracle team,

no matter which bios settings or windows settings (hyper-v on off, virtualization on off, sandbox on off, all windows additional functions on (normal) or off) I think I get this error: VERR_NEM_VM_CREATE_FAILED

I do not know any more and hope for your support. here is an inserted log to my normal settings.

Yours sincerely roman prosek

Have you tried to uninstall Hyper-V, by going to:

Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features > Turn Windows features on or off > Unselect Hyper-V > OK

... making sure to restart Windows TWICE, as my testing indicates that it actually takes 2 restarts to fully uninstall Hyper-V.

Any luck after those 2 restarts?

I was commenting on this while Jacob was actually... posting :)
I'll include my original comment in any event, if nothing else just to CC: myself...

00:00:01.895780 OS Release: 10.0.18362 

That's a Win10 insider build. And there has been another, double-confirmed thread about this in the ​"VirtualBox on Windows pre-releases" area.

Related discussion in the forums: ​https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=92453

Please visit the forums, let's continue the discussion there. I'll simply point to my last post in the forums that summarizes the situation so far:

• 10.0.18362 seems that it's going to be the 1903 (April 2019) Win10 official update.
• That's around the time (2019-04-16) that I suspect that 6.0.6 and 5.2.28 are going to become available, based on Oracle's security update schedules. See ​https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/security/alerts-086861.html
• I think it would be wisest for the problem to have been addressed by the time that both of the releases happen...

Which means that you will have to keep a closer eye in the next couple of weeks on the Testbuilds. A really close eye...

PS. If someone of the people-with-the-right-power sees this ticket, I had to change the forums' thread title to something more appropriate compared to "trying to run virtralbox", I renamed it to "VERR_NEM_VM_CREATE_FAILED with Win10 10.0.18362", you could consider doing something similar, changing the ticket's title to something more... appropriate ;)

Look in the "Control Panel" » "Programs and Features" » "Turn Windows features on or off", and make sure that the none of the following are active:

• Application Guard
• Credential Guard
• Device Guard
• <any> Guard
• Containers
• Hyper-V
• Virtual Machine Platform
• Windows Hypervisor Platform
• Windows Sandbox
• Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)

If that doesn't work, enter the following command:

bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off

followed by a cold boot, i.e. shut down the computer, pull the power plug for 10", reboot.

And can someone change the title to something more meaningful, like:

"VERR_NEM_VM_CREATE_FAILED with Win10 10.0.18362"

TIA
