Windows/Vagrant:There was an error while executing `VBoxManage`, - vagrant

I vagrant box file that was packaged on a Macbook. I transferred the file into Windows on my Surface Book and getting some permission error.
To fix this, other people suggested to enable virtualization and disable Hyper-V, which I have done already. After I tried this, I'm still getting the same problem, my VM can't be power on.
Please also see my attached screen capture.

Don't remove .vagrant, always use vagrant destroy or vagrant destroy -f to start from the scratch.
Disable HyperV.
Reinstall Virtualbox (repair installation).
Reinstall Vagrant (repair installation).
Go to C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\drivers\vboxdrv → right click on VBoxDrv.inf → select Install.

Hello, I have this issue and I couldn't solve it neither find a solution on the web.
I don't know what else to try, that's why I'm here.
I've tried these same following steps in 3 different pc's with intel and amd with Windows 10 and It didn't work.
I think there's a setting that I still don't know I have to set about Hosts, ports and VirtualBox, because It doesn't matter what Adapter Ports do I configure to homestead, when I excecute Vagrant Up they are reseted and then the issue is shown on bash.
This is what I've done:
I've installed virtual Box 6.1.4 version.
I've installed Vagrant 2.3.2
Added C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox to enviroment variables
I excecuted the following commands on bash:
vagrant box add laravel/homestead
Option 2) VirtualBox
git clone https://github.com/laravel/homestead.git Homestead
cd Homestead
bash init.sh
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "email"
Created code folder on the user folder
vagrant up
Please help!
You miss one step:
cd ~/Homestead
after you need to:
git checkout release
after you can run:
bash init.sh
... or
vagrant up --provision
I had the same issue today, this solved the problem.
Solved an issue by reverting changes of this commit.
Idk why this was added. Laravel homestead installation instructions says it has support of VirtualBox 6.1.x but commit message says "Updating HostOnly adapter for VirtualBox 7"

Vagrant error when running vagrant up on Git Bash on Window 10

I am having trouble with vagrant up on Git Bash.
I'm currently using Vagrant 2.2.19 and VirtualBox 6.1 version.
Whenever I put vagrant up on Bash to be able to open VirtualBox server on Git bash using vagrant ssh, it shows the following error.

The guest machine entered an invalid state while waiting for it
to boot. Valid states are 'starting, running'. The machine is in the
'unknown' state. Please verify everything is configured
properly and try again.
If the provider you're using has a GUI that comes with it,
it is often helpful to open that and watch the machine, since the
GUI often has more helpful error messages than Vagrant can retrieve.
For example, if you're using VirtualBox, run `vagrant up` while the
VirtualBox GUI is open.
The primary issue for this error is that the provider you're using
is not properly configured. This is very rarely a Vagrant issue.
What I have done so far
Visualization is enabled from BIOS
Install VirtualBox extension pack
Uninstall and reinstall VirtualBox and Vagrant several times
Also, when I put vagrant ssh after that error, it shows nothing, but the VirtualBox is running as this image. Can you guys help me figure out how to open the VirtualBox server on Bash, please? Thank you!

Welcome to stackoverflow! Please visit this useful link.
-Try to downgrade the vagrant version that you are using and try again.
-Also, try to use the command debug vagrant up in order to have debug logs available for a more precise description of the error message.
Finally, take a look at stackoverflow question too.
You need to downgrade the virtualbox version and the vagrant version (they need to be both on convenient versions)

I tried to start Oracle Virtual Box separately, buts it is also failing. It isn't showing any errors but Virtual Box is not starting up as well.
My Virtual Box (Version 5.1.6) is probably having some compatibility issue with windows-10 update. I updated Virtual box to 5.1.22 and this seems to have fixed the issue.
My Virtual box was on version 5.1.6 . I upgraded it to the latest version 5.1.30 available as of today. This fixed the issue. I was able to launch the VMs installed in the virtual box.

I am facing the above issue when i tried to "vagrant up" win-2012r2-standard-amd64-nocm box.
I ran into this as well, and found this article: https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=58820 (if it helps you).
I tried turning VT-x off:
PS C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox> .\VBoxManage.exe modifyvm 0150_default_1465225816011_20737 --paravirtprovider off --hwvirtex off
(Longmode doesn't seem to matter)
But then I ran into this issue: Vagrant stuck connection timeout retrying
Fundamentally, the VM starts a 64-bit system, and if you turn VT-x off, your VM can't boot in 64-bit.
The end result was that I needed to UNINSTALL (not just disable) Hyper-V.
It turns out the Hyper-V disables VT-x (and if you do any android development, you've run into this. It sounds like recent versions of windows/Hyper-V can't even be disabled, they must be fully installed.
This option is found in
Programs and Features > Turn Windows Features on or off

Issues when running vagrant in Ubuntu 14.04

When running vagrant with latest package of Ubuntu 14.04, I got the following error message. Is there any configuration for Virtualbox? The provider is Virtualbox, and not special configuration after apt-get install virtualbox. BTW, can not connect to this host by GUI :(.

If the provider you're using has a GUI that comes with it,
it is often helpful to open that and watch the machine, since the

Enable VT-x Virtualization Technology in BIOS and still your problem remains see issue vagrant issues 2157 and this issue.
