Description
Others and I are seeing this in my detailed https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=104175 forum thread with logs and comments. We had no problems in v6.1.26. VB kept showing this after starting a guest VM:
"Failed to open a session for the virtual machine ...
Call to NEMR0InitVMPart2 failed: VERR_NEM_INIT_FAILED (VERR_NEM_VM_CREATE_FAILED).
Result Code: E_FAIL (0x80004005) Component: ConsoleWrap Interface: IConsole {872da645-4a9b-1727-bee2-5585105b9eed}".
They last worked on a couple days ago too in v6.1.26 before upgrading to v6.1.28. I already tried rebooting, repairing, etc. I was forced to downgrade back to v6.1.26. Attached and http://zimage.com/~ant/temp/AntsVirtualBox6.1.zip for my VB settings and logs.
Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)

VB version update:
VB 6.1.29r147791 has the issue. VB 6.1.97r147788 now has the issue. VB 6.1.97r147373 does not exhibit the issue.
So now all of the stable and test builds are failing.

I have the same problem when I upgrade to 6.1.28, so I back to 6.1.26. I guess the bug is very common and is critical.

Have seen the issue before. It must have been late 2019 / early 2020
When Microsoft released WSL on windows10. I wanted to play around with that also. Can't help it since I started with Unix in 1976 or so. So I enabled the Microsoft way the VM, did some other instructions and loaded Ubuntu in WSL. Experimented with an X11-server and got commands like gedit and firefox working.
Then I wanted to update my Ubuntu platform inside Virtual box which I did run in Windows 10. Then some error like this occured. Conclusion at that time: WSL and Virtual Box cannot run concurrently on Windows 10!
When I wanted to run WSL (with Ubuntu) I had to instruct Windows with 'bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype auto' and reboot my computer. When I wanted to work with VirutalBox (ubuntu) I had to run 'bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off'.
Many people reported the issie and a few months later a new version of VirutalBox appeared and I could run WSL and VirtualBox concurrently! With the upgrade last week to VirtualBox 6.1.28 I (again) cannot use both concurrently! Ultimately I downgraded to 6.1.26 as you can imagine.
My laptop is a Asus X580VD i70-7700HQ with GTX1050 graphics and 16Gb RAM. Standard OS is Windows 10 21H1 fully loaded with all patches/updates.

Same problem here. Disabling the Hyper-V wouldn't turn the VMs very slow?

It is a bit slower. Primarily starting up, once Ubuntu is booted (in VirtualBox) I really don't notice a big loss in performance. My pc has an i7-7700HQ CPU and 16Gb RAM along SSD disk.

Same here with 6.1.28 r147628 The version I had before, worked well together with WSL

The fix is available in the latest 6.1 test build. Please read the note in section "Installing Windows test builds" regarding secure boot.

This also worked for me right now. Sadly I will also have to downgrade as Virtualbox does not work with WSL :(

Just downloaded the 6.1.29-148084 version and still got the error. I tried with many different settings on "Paravirtualization interface" but still fails...

When i try to run the service with :
sc start vboxdrv
i got an error that says that windows can't verify the signature so he won't start the service.
I went to the bios and got disabled "secure boot" and now it works, finally. Guess it's a build test issue and the release build will fix this, cause i can't permanently disable secure boot.
Thanks.

Had the same problem trying to fire up a Windows 11 VM. Can't disable Hyper-V because of WSL2. Downgrading to 6.1.26 solved it. Hoping it gets fixed soon.

I can confirm too, I had the original error with 6.1.28, testbuild 148164 fixed it for me. Thanks!

Thanks for the confirmations... hope we can tick this off soon in an official release.
comment:22 Changed 16 months ago by AndyC
BTW the 6.1.97-148372 is now usable on my setup and also has the fix. Previous 6.1.97 versions ran like a dog on my setup.
comment:23 Changed 16 months ago by klaus
6.1.97 are development versions of the "after 6.1" time, so the "use with caution" rule applies. Normally it's better to use a 6.1 test build.
comment:25 Changed 16 months ago by Huub
Just downloaded and installed Version 6.1.30 r148432 (Qt5.6.2) and can confirm now that things do work as expected again. Great work Vbox team! Thanks very much resolving this.
