          Shutdown all your VM's.




          1. Go to your /home/$user/.VirtualBox/ folder

          2. Find the file VirtualBox.xml-prev

          3. mv VirtualBox.xml VirtualBox.xml.bak

          4. mv VirtualBox.xml-prev VirtualBox.xml


          If this fails, you can reverse it with rm VirtualBox.xml && mv VirtualBox.xml.bak VirtualBox.xml



          Try restarting VirtualBox



          Other possible fixes:




          • sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup


          or




          • sudo dpkg-reconfigure virtualbox-dkms
