   I was having some issues with VirtualBox out of nowhere, and I hadn't changed any settings in a while so I'm not quite sure why this became a problem (maybe a Windows update changed configs?), but here was my solution:

   1\. Open up Windows Features via search

   2\. Uncheck these (if they're already checked and/or exist):

   a. Hyper-V

   b. Containers

   c. Virtual Machine Platform

   d. Windows Hypervisor Platform

   3\. If this still doesn't solve your issue, do this:

   a. Open Windows PowerShell via search

   b. Type bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off

   c. Reboot the machine

   Just note that following these steps will most likely make WSL (Windows Subsystem) not work unless you reverse these changes.

   Hope this helps
