Kali won't run in Virtualbox

#1

Hi Jesse
Receive this error when I try launch the Kali I downloaded for your course from your google drive:
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Kali Linux 2020 .

The virtual machine ‘Kali Linux 2020’ has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code 1 (0x1). More details may be available in ‘C:\Users\camer\VirtualBox VMs\Kali Linux 2020\Logs\VBoxHardening.log’ .

Result Code: E_FAIL (0x80004005)
Component: MachineWrap
Interface: IMachine {85632c68-b5bb-4316-a900-5eb28d3413df}

Can you help fix this please?

Hi Koslovski79,

Try reinstalling VirtualBox and re-importing the .ova file from the Google drive to rule out a corrupted download/installation.

If the problem persists, share the VBoxHardening.log file for further troubleshooting.
