The VM I was trying to run was running perfectly on a Windows 7 machine.
I had upgraded to Windows 10 and tried out the same machine (with all the same configs and vagrant boxes), uninstalled and reinstalled virtualbox several times, but it still doesn't work.
Tried making a brand new VM - that didn't work too.
Here's the error
Some people who had similar 'hostonly' errors have suggested to restart the VirtualBox service from terminal, but I don't know the Windows equivalent of that command.
Anybody had this error before? How do I solve this?
A test build is available at https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/VirtualBox-5.0.1-101902-Win.exe . This should fix the host-only interface creation problem by introducing a 5-second timeout when querying the registry key. We would appreciate feedback (i.e. does it fix the host-only interface creation errors or not, is the timeout long enough).

Uninstalling the current VirtualBox and installing the testbuild worked for me
I have the same error and it seems to be a problem with changed network security in Windows and still no updated for it in Virtualbox.
Not pretty but a working solution (tested under Win10 build10130). This is what I did to get homestead up and working
Uninstall Vagrant and VirtualBox (restart if necessary)
Install notepad+ or other notepad replacement that handles linux line-endings
Download Vagrant v1.7.2, VirtualBox 5.0RC1, VirtualBox v4.3.6
Enable built-in administrator account.
net user administrator /active:yes
switch to Administrator account
Install Vagrant v1.7.2 (restart if necessary, log back into Administrator)
Install VirtualBox v5.0RC1
Install VirtualBox v4.3.6
Update VBox Host-Only adaptor driver (device manager,Search Automatically)
Edit VagrantFile file (where ever you vagrant up from) and change all ~/ to C:/Users/username/
Edit Homestead.yaml (Where ever you had it, likely C:\Users\username\.homestead) and change all ~/ to C:/Users/username/
Open VirtualBox
Run vagrant up
switch back to your usual user (do not sign out of Adminstrator)
hey presto, you have a working homestead
Each time after to manage vagrant (start, halt, whatever) switch to Administrator, manage, and switch back to your usual user. Do not sign out of the Administrator account when switching if you have a box up

When I run vagrant up from the command line, it is a crap shoot at best as to whether vagrant will boot up or not. It stops at this line:
SSH auth method: private key
And then may or may not include this line:
Warning: Remote connection disconnect. Retrying...
As I said, sometimes it works and sometimes it does not. Why is this problem happening? For the record it would happen (less often) on my production MacBook at work.
Can I maybe change the auth method if there is no good answer for this? Trust me I have been looking and not found any answer on this yet.
whats happening is the following :
vagrant up will spin a new VM, basically it contacts virtualbox (or the specific provider) and run command to start a VM
the VM will start on the virtualbox side
note: if you run form a command line terminal in macos, you can see the title switching from 'Ruby' to 'VBoxManage'
the VM takes some time to start
because the VM does not send a specific signal when its done, vagrant will check at regular interval if the VM is fully booted and available to ssh-in
once the VM is available, vagrant can run the ssh command and complete the config (network, shared folder, etc...)
so in your case, the VM takes a bit longer to boot (this can be due to high activity on your mac, specific setup of the VM that runs on boot ...)
Basically this is harmless and is not necessarily a bad sign.
Please look at my accepted answer on this. It turns out that this was a memory allocation issue, and I only discovered it when watching the terminal for the VM provider (VirtualBox). Once I closed some programs I was (generally) able to boot up just fine.
There seems to be an incompatibility problem with Vagrant/VirtualBox & the Windows Hypervisor Platform feature in Windows 10
I had this problem and this is how I got get Vagrant & WSL2 working side by side
I have the following environment:
Hardware Virtualization enabled in BIOS
Windows 10 (Insider Program with Release Preview Channel)
-- Windows 10 with WSL 2 Version 10.0.19041 Build 19041
VirtualBox 6.1.12
-- Extension Pack Installed
Vagrant 2.2.9
These are the settings that worked for me:
Windows Hypervisor Platform: Off
Virtual Machine Platform: On
Windows Subsystem for Linux: On
I'm trying to set Vagrant's sync_type to smb, but fail on running vagrant up after changing the configuration.
I receive the following error:
SMB shared folders require running Vagrant with administrative
privileges. This is a limitation of Windows, since creating new
network shares requires admin privileges. Please try again in a
console with proper permissions or use another synced folder type.
I launched both VirtualBox (the GUI) and Cygwin in administrator mode, but the error persisted. Using Git Bash, Powershell or CMD instead of Cygwin didn't fix it. Also re-installing VirtualBox as administrator did not change anything.
I'm running VirtualBox 5.0.24 r108355, Vagrant 1.8.4 and Windows 10 Pro, build 10586.420.
How can I get vagrant to recognize and use the administrator rights?
UPDATE
I found I am able to launch the machine from the VirtualBox GUI (started as admin), suggesting that the VirtualBox interface used by Cygwin may not be running in administrator mode. However, I'm currently unable to connect to the machine through Cygwin.
UPDATE 2
Running VirtualBox GUI as regular user also allowed me to boot the machine.
To use the SMB synced folder type, the machine running Vagrant must be a Windows machine with PowerShell version 3 or later installed. In addition to this, the command prompt executing Vagrant must have administrative privileges. Vagrant requires these privileges in order to create new network folder shares.

I have a problem with Vagrant, trying to initialize a virtualbox with laravel/homestead box.
I have installed latest version of Vagrant (1.7.4) on my Windows 8 OS.
I have installed Oracle VirtualBox 5.5.0.
Then I did this in windows Command Prompt:
vagrant add box laravel/homestead to add the laravel homestead box
vagrant init laravel/homestead
and
vagrant up
After vagrant up somewhere in the process the system fails with BSoD (KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED)
Any ideas of what i could have done wrong, or have anybody experienced this problem?
Thank you!
Make sure you don't have Hyper-V windows resource active.
If you had installed Docker before check this, coz Docker needs Hyper-V.
In my case this works for me
Search for "Windows resource" on your windows start menu, and click on Enable or Disable windows resources, find Hyper-V, uncheck all checkboxes and OK. Restart your machine after this.

I had almost same issue(BSOD gave error SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION).
Yesterday I installed Docker on Windows 10 and today I tried to "vagrant up"(using VirtualBox Provisioner) and got the BSOD. Hyper-V was conflicting and I turned it off from "Windows Features" and the issue got resolved.
I am trying to install Mac(OSX-Mavericks) using virtualbox On Windows 8.1.
Everything works fine But, when MAC Installation setup starts in virtual machine, it keep on loading and do not start the installation wizard stays on the first screen.
I have waited for a log time like 3-4 hrs but unable to figure out the problem as there is no error.
I am using a dell(Inspiron 3537).
I have installed Mac on my previous Samsung laptop successfully in the same way.
I will provide other information on demand as I'm not sure where the problem is as setup loads but not starts the installation process.
Thanks in advance
enable virtualisation on your BIOS, it may helps.
Open an administrator CMD shell and try this:
cd "C:\Program Files\Oracle\Virtualbox"
VBoxManage modifyvm <name_of_your_vm> --cpuidset 00000001 000306a9 00020800 80000201 178bfbff
Then close/VirtualBox and open again (to save your new settings). Boot OSX with "-v" flag.
I've installed the genymotion+virtualbox package on Windows 7 64-bit and everything goes fine... But when I start Genymotion it presents me an error message Unable to load virtualbox.
VirtualBox is installed and I'm able to start it manually. I've tried to install the packages separately, updated virtualbox to 4.2.16 but nothing worked.
I've already read genymotion FAQ but it did not help.
I have spend all day to solve this error since none of the answers worked for me.
I found out that oracle virtual box doesn't install the network adapter correctly in windows 8.1
Solution:
Delete all previous virtual box adapters
Go to device manager and click "Action" > "Add legacy hardware"
Install the oracle virtual box adapters manually (my path was C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\drivers\network\netadp\VBoxNetAdp.inf)
Now that virtual box adapters is installed correctly, it needs to be setup correctly. (the following solution is like many other solution in here)
Start Oracle VM VirtualBox and go to "File" > "Preferences" > "Network" > "Host-only Network"
Click edit
Set IPv4 192.168.56.1 mask 255.255.255.0
Click DHCP Server tab and set server adr: 192.168.56.100 server Mask: 255.255.255.0 low address bound: 192.168.56.101 upper adress bound 192.168.56.254
Now click OK and start genymotion
Had the same problem, Uninstall Genymotion, install VirtualBox stand alone from https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads then install the Genymotion package without VirtualBox.
Try closing Android Studio/Eclipse if it's open. It worked for me.
In Linux at least, I had to restart VirtualBox, running this command on terminal:
/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBox restart
Seems to be the same on Mac OS X.
What worked for me in Windows 7 is to remove the Host-only Network (in Oracle virtual box Preferences menu [CTRL+G] -> Network -> Host-only Networks). Genymotion will recreate it automatically at the next virtual device start. For the record; I'm using a Nexus S 2.3.7 virtual device.
Open Genymotion in Windows as an administrator. My Genymotion works only in this mode
FIXED SOLUTION
Run below command in terminal, It denotes where is your virtualbox install on MAC/Linux.
$ which vboxmanage
/usr/local/bin/VBoxManage
Genymotion search the virtualBox in /usr/bin/VBoxManage while it is located to /usr/local/bin/VBoxManage , you need to create the symlink to that location , Run in terminal to fix it.
sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/VBoxManage /usr/bin/VBoxManage
I am using Intellij IDEA and same error happened to me, I found that the path to genymotion folder was not configured properly. Either open settings using File > Settings or press Ctrl + Alt + S then in IDE Settings check if the path to the genymotion folder is correct or not.
Since Android Studio are almost similar to Intellij IDEA so you can apply the same steps above to Android Studio as well.
Actually it seems like Genymotion has an issue with the newer versions of Virtual box, I had the same issue on my Mac but when I downgraded to 4.3.30 it worked like a charm.
Verify that GenyMotion is in your PATH environment variable. I noticed mine was not auto populated, so once I entered it, it was fine.
For Windows there are 2 installers. Did you use the bundle containing VirtualBox installer?
It is call Windows 32/64 bits (with VirtualBox).
Don't ask what this has to do with that , but by right clicking the genymotion application file and changing to compatibility to Vista solved the problem!
I also experienced this when I upgraded operating system from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1. Un-installing Virtualbox and re-installing worked for me.
Close Android Studio (if Android Studio is running)
Run Genymotion as administrator
that's all! simple.
try launching it via android-studio/eclipse plugin. Thats how I had similar issue when launching it from ubuntu.
