Virtualbox network adapter not created

Description
Hello, I switched from v.2.1.4 to 2.2.2, and then returned to 2.1.4, because I noticed that 2.2.2 was not running so smoothly on my PC station.
From that moment, Virtualbox is not adding Virtual Network Adapter to my Network Devices. I´m not able to solve this issue. Tried uninstalling, than restart, reinstalling (also different versions), restart, repairing and so on. Without success. Virtualbox just add "Unknown Device" to my network adapters. Tried also installing manually drivers for that device, without success.
Thanks in advance

I suppose you're talking about the "VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter". There is no such adapter in VBox 2.1.4. It was introduced in VBox 2.2 and is used for the host-onlt networking, i.e. a network where host + one or more guests are connected to one private virtual network.
