I updated my VB to 6.1 and i am getting this error upon hitting start button.

--startvm is an option for the VirtualBox VM runner (VirtualBoxVM) application, not the VirtualBox Manager.

On older version of VB utility works

I tried below script from usb:

xcopy /S /E /Q /Y %~d0\\VirtualMachineUSBBoot "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\VirtualMachineUSBBoot\"
del /s /f /q "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\VirtualMachineUSBBoot\Virtual Machine USB Boot.cfg"
del /s /f /q "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\VirtualMachineUSBBoot\Virtual Machine USB Boot.vml"

pause

But when opening it was'nt loading config specified in those cfg and vml files

When starting with the "Start" button
Both virtualbox and that app opened with admin rights

However, I noticed that when I click start it doesn't use existing VirtualBox instance. It shows that message and opens another instance of vbox

The new version 6 of VBox does not work with VMUB 1.72

Possible reason: unable to find a storage controller in the VirtualBox VM, please add one and try again. You can do that by starting the VirtualBox Manager, editing the VM’s storage options and adding a storage controller.

Are you sure you want to continue (not recommended)…?

The options provided are “Abort” and “Retry.”

Hi,

I am reporting an issue happened two time using different USB key, this make me sure there is something wrong somewhere.

Details:

My Host: Windows 10 Enterprice using VirtualBox 5.2.16
My USB key have 2 partitions: EFI + Bitlocker Password protected Disk with Windows 10

My USB Key work fine, no issue booting directly from PC, but as you can image using as VirtualMachine is much better.

Ho to reproduce:

After successfuly configure with Virtual Machine USB Boot I run my VM booting from USB, type Bitlocker passord and then no issue.
Closing my VM I found the following problem: second partition is not anymore usable, reports "The disk structure is corrupted and unreadable"

As I mention at beginning this issue happened two times , the firts with EFI + Bitlocker Password protected Disk with Windows 8

Please let me know

PortableVBOX (https://www.vbox.me/files/Portable-VirtualBox_v5.1.22-Starter_v6.4.10-Win_all.exe)
Location: C:\Users\T\Desktop\Vbox\Portable-VirtualBox

Tried Both
ON Easy2boot Drive: F:\Vmub
As well as Desktop

Options: EXE Path: C:\Users\T\Desktop\Vbox\Portable-VirtualBox\Portable-VirtualBox.exe
VM Path: C:\Users\T\Desktop\Vbox\Boot\Boot.vbox

Above are my configurations:
But booting isnt happening.

Same config work when i use installed Vbox
But notwith Portable Vbox

I have noticed recently that VMUB cannot dismount the USB drive even if I retry numerous times.
I suspect this is due to a recent Windows update (I have 1803) or perhaps other change because it always used to work without a problem.
Using tools like 'What is locking this folder' just shows 'System' process accessing the drive.
The Windows SysTray 'Safely Remove' icon also will NOT work on the drive and refuses to unmount it.
The 'USB Disk Eject' application does manage to eject the USB drive though when the SysTray 'Safely Remove' does not work.
I have Comodo AV installed and Windows Defender is disabled.
This problem does not always happen, but is does happen very often.

The funny thing is, if I click Ignore on the VMUB pop-up, it often (but not always) then boots to the USB drive via Virtual Box OK BUT I can the quit VB and run VMUB again and this time it does work and VMUB dismounts the drive correctly.
So recently I have been using VMUB - Ignore - quit VB - VMUB .... each time I need to boot.

I was wondering if whatever you do when I select 'Ignore' can always be done first, before you attempt to fully lock/dismount the USB drive? It's curious that 'Ignore' + VB seems to do 'something' which then 'releases' the drive for the next attempt.

"Could not automatically add the drive(s) to the VirtualBox VM."

Some interface language resouce not included in language file.

Issue

I want to use VMUB with a portable virtualbox, but I can't add an instance of VMUB because it cannot detect the virtualbox. Then I try the "VM path" option, and get the following message:

can somebody help?

Environment

virtualbox 6.0
vmub 1.7.2 (portable x86)
win 10

I am getting the following error:

Possible reason: "MediaRegistry" section not found in the vbox file.

I am using VMUB 1.7x64 and VirtualBox 5.2.8

Thanks!
