XAP failed to initialize device and virtualbox man

问题:

I updated windows recently.I also updated xamarin studio 6.1.1 and now not able to initialize the device. Everything was working perfectly before updates. I keep getting error: failed to initialize device. VBoxManage command failed.See log for further details. As I read on other threads, I was trying to open virtual boxmanager window and delete device. I was not able to open virtual boxmanager window. so uninstalled virtual box, installed new version. then uninstalled xap and reinstalled. still getting error. Which log should I check for details.? checked VT-x in the BIOS. it is enabed. Not able to open virtual boxmanager. Also tried diabling and enabling virtualbox NDIS6 bridged networking driver.
