Also unable to load virtualbox engine. After all I tried to upload Genymotion version 2.0.3 and system worked but I could not upload any virtual device. Then uploaded 1 virtual device however it did not worked. Help Please.. Thank you

Answer 1

Install the latest version of Genymotion(2.5.3) can solve the problem.

I've send a email to Genymotion to ask this problem, and I got this reply：

" Damien (Genymobile) Jul 30, 10:25 Hi, Thanks for your report! It will help us to improve our products. Old version of Genymotion were not working correctly with Windows 10. This has been fixed in Genymotion 2.5.3. Please download the latest version of Genymotion and try again. Best regards, Damien Genymotion Support Team "

Answer 2

UPDATE: This is fixed in the latest Genymotion and doesn't happen to me any more.

NOTE: this is using Genymotion 2.5.3, VirtualBox 5.0.0 r101573 and updated Windows 10 as of today.

I'm having all kinds of problems as well, I finally managed to get it working:

• Delete genymotion and virtualbox
• Remove any unremoved files in folders like AppData and Program Files
• Restart
• Install Genymotion
• Install VirtualBox latest
• Run Genymotion as admin, just in case
• Install an image that I didn't try before to make sure it's not using any cached data.

It worked fine.

Sometimes, I still freezes and stops working if I try to start a second device. The solution is to:

• Close Genymotion, Android studio, etc
• Force kill adb.exe and any VirtualBox processes.
• Start Genymotion again and start a device.

Answer 3

Install Virtualbox Testbuild lastest -> Install Genymotion without Virtualbox -> Right click Genymotion -> Properties -> Compatibility -> In Compatibility mode, check Run this program in compatibility mode for and selected Windows 8 -> It work for me.

Answer 4

You have just to update your VirtualBox, use a 5.x.x VBOX version it should work normaly ;)

Answer 5

only update vbox to the latest version. and run genymotion

Answer 6

Start Genymotion 2.5.3 in compatibility mode with Windows 8 - it solves the problem for me. VirtualBox 5.0.0 r101573 and Windows 10 Home (all for x64).
