Genymotion unable to load VirtualBox engine on Win

问题:

I recently upgraded to Windows 10 BUILD 10130 and for some reasons, Genymotion doesn't seem to be working. It says "Unable to load VirtualBox Engine."

Now i did a bit of research and all the solutions suggested to Delete the Host-only network from Virtual Box settings. Well here's the thing i don't have any networks listed there. And the one which i found on the Network and Sharing center cannot be deleted.

Even a clean install hasn't solved the issue

Please help.

Step 1: Run VirtualBox as administrator

Step 2: Go to File -> Preferences -> Network -> Host Only Networks

Step 3: Add a new one or just edit an old one (if not work, delete all existed and create a new one):

Adapter Tab:
    IPv4 Address:        192.168.x.201
    IPv4 Network Mask:   255.255.255.0
DHCP Server Tab:
    Server Address:      192.168.x.100
    Server Mask:         255.255.255.0
    Lower Address Bound: 192.168.x.101
    Upper Address Bound: 192.168.x.199

UPD: My Virtual device starting only form Genymotion app. But show mistake if I try to start it from Android Studio

回答3:

I had the same problem on my Windows 10 Insider Preview (Build 10130). But fixed it by running Genymotion using right-click -> Run As Administrator.

回答4:

My this problem solved by first start Virtualbox as Administrator and then Genymotion also start as Administrator :) happy coding :)

回答5:

None of the above solutions or any solutions in any other thread/forum worked for me.

Here's what I did to solve the issue

1. Uninstall VBox and Genymotion

2. Install Genymotion again from the website with VirtualBox (124mb for Windows) https://www.genymotion.com/#!/download

3. Restart PC

4. Try to load Genymotion, you should get the same error again

5. Open RegEdit go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER > SOFTWARE > Genymobile > Genymotion

6. Check for the key 'VBoxPath'. In my system this path was

C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\\VBoxManage.exe

7. Edit the path to remove the double '\' It should now be :

   C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VBoxManage.exe

8. Save changes and start Genymotion!

Worked like a charm for me :)

回答6:

Only solution that worked for me is: 1. Uninstall oracle vm virtual Box 5.0.4 and install 5.0.20(https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Download_Old_Builds_5_0) 2. Run virtual box as administrator 3. Run Genymotion as administrator That's it.

回答7:

Genymotion 2.6.0 and Win10 didn´t start for me, got a error dialog when trying to start device in Genymotion. Tried to start the device from VirtualBox but got an error there to.

This solved it for me. Go to network settings in Windows and find your Virtual Host-Only Network that your device is using and select properties, if the VirtualBox NDIS6 Bridged Networking Driver isn´t selected the device will not start.

To date, VirtualBox is not yet fully compatible with Windows 10. As Genymotion relies on the use of VirtualBox in the background, some problems may arise. If you have any troubles running Genymotion on Windows 10, we first recommend that you put VirtualBox in a clean state. To do so: Uninstall VirtualBox. Reboot your computer if prompted by the installer. Install the version of VirtualBox recommended for Windows 10 Reboot your computer if prompted by the installer. Open VirtualBox and go to File > Preferences > Network. Remove all existing host-only networks by clicking Description 1. Start Genymotion a first time. In the event of a failure, start Genymotion a second time. If Genymotion still doesn’t run, you can manually configure a host-only network:

Open VirtualBox and go to File > Preferences > Network. Add a new host-only network by clicking Description 1. Edit its configuration by clicking Description 1. In the Adapter tab, set the following values: IPv4 Address: 192.168.56.1 IPv4 Network Mask: 255.255.255.0 In the DHCP Server tab, set the following values: Check Enable Server. Server Address: 192.168.56.100 Server Mask: 255.255.255.0 Lower Address Bound: 192.168.56.101 Upper Address Bound: 192.168.56.254

In RegEdit on path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Oracle\VirtualBox changing the value for InstallDir to C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox solved the problem.

回答10:

These soutions doesn't work for me. But I found my solution. So my solution: Go to computer BIOS, and enable "Virtualization Technology", and "VT-d". After these, no need to changed the Virtual Box settings, but it will work.

回答11:

I try all guide but cannot fix, so I open genymotion > preference > ADB > set sdk path to my sdk path that I am using for build my app. It worked fine.

回答12:

Another good suggestion from the Genymotion's web site FAQ is to install the last version of VirtualBox. That worked for me, together with some other suggestions pointed out here (run as admin, etc.).

回答13:

Just an addition.

There are some conflicts between MayType and VirtualBox(above version4.1.32),so if you are using Mactype, you can open you mactype folder,find MayType.ini,and add these lines.If you have no WRITE authority to this file, just change authority setting.

Installing the latest VirtualBox(5.1.8) solve the problem for me, while I have to turn off Hyper-V on windows as well.

回答15:

The only thing worked for me, is by removing all host-only networks, and start the Genymotion, it will auto re-configure the host-only networks for you. Here are the steps for more details: Open VirtualBox and go to File > Preferences > Network. Remove all existing host-only networks. Start Genymotion a first time. In the event of a failure, start Genymotion a second time.

回答16:

just uninstall Genymotion and VirtualBox then reinstall Genymotion(with virtualbox) , it will work.
