I installed virtual box properly but this problem persist.
i am using fedora 23.
Unable to load VirtualBox engine.
Possibly try restarting virtual box from the terminal or running Genymotion as an admin without an IDE open on startup.
Also, here are two other threads with similar problems:

After installing openSUSE-2022-10067 Security update for virtualbox, I got the following error when trying to start a guest vitural machine: Failed to open a session for the virtual machine. Result Code NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) Component: SessionMachine Interface: ISession{c0447716-ff5a-4795-b57a-ecd5fffa18a4}
Details: The VM Session was aborted.
I had above errors with MS Win-10 and Opensuse Leap 15.4 Guest VM's on a Open Suse Leap 15.4 VM-Host-System.
Anybody experiances the same issue?
My temporary solution was to rollback the snapshot to pre-installation of the security update for virtualbox. Then it was possible to start the VM's without any errors again.
I think I've seen a similar crash when trying to start a VM with the combination of VirtualBox 6.1.35 and 6.1.36 in combination with the VirtualBox Extension Pack (EP) 6.1.34. Did you also upgrade the EP? ;)
This solves my problem in VirtualBox 6.1.36
With 6.1.35 I could not even update the EP without running in the same error.
Hope this helps.

I use Ubuntu 20.04
I installed genymotion and virtual box from official sites.
When I installed first time genymotion emulator launched after few attempts. After few days didn't launch any more. I tried reinstall virtual box but it doesn't helped to me. I searched on the internet but I didn't find anything what fixed my problem.
When I launch emulator from genymotion it shows me this error:
When I launch this machine from virtual box it show me this error:
UPD: Also I have VMware Player on my machine. Maybe it's interrupt it, I don't know.
Have you followed the instructions from Genymotion help center article: https://support.genymotion.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002718198-Unable-to-start-the-Virtual-Device ?
I installed VirtualBox on a Windows 10 PC. I installed Ubuntu v. 16.04 in it. But when I shutdown the virtual machine and restart it, it asks me to install it again. The installation itself is not saved to my virtual machine.
It sounds like your virtual machine is booting from the installation media.
In virtual box go to your virtual machine's configuration and ensure that you remove the live USB / disk image from the available devices section. However, a more suitable place for this question is Ask Ubuntu.
I was given a VMWare image running Windows Server 2008 which was imported on my PC perfectly fine and works.
I really want to run it on my MacBook Pro and would have to use Oracle Virtual Box as it seems there is no VMWare Player for OSX.
According to the Internet, the strategy for opening a VMWare machine in Oracle Virtual Box is to create a new machine and attach an existing hard drive.
On the Mac I tried this and get into a situation "Windows Error Recovery" which I am unable to recover from.
On the PC I get exactly the same problems with Oracle Virtual Box with that same image as I do on the Mac.
On the PC (as stated) I can run the VM in VMWare BUT if I have already attempted to open the VM in Oracle Virtual Box, the image is corrupted and can't then be opened on the PC with VMWare.
My question is if anyone has any knowledge of what settings need to be changed in Oracle Virtual Box before opening the VM and destroying the image with it.
Many thanks

I worked around this issue by attaching the Windows Server 2008 disk image as additional Storage to another VM that was already working (e.g. an IE8 Win7 VM downloaded from Microsoft). You can set the hard disk as master or slave, or switch when booting up the main VM.
I just updated virtualbox to the latest 4.1.16 r78094 and realized that I can no longer start my virtual machines.
If I start a VM, the error displayed is:
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Historical Image.
Failed to load VMMR0.r0 (VERR_NO_MEMORY).
Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component: Console
Interface: IConsole {1968b7d3-e3bf-4ceb-99e0-cb7c913317bb}
I have 8GB RAM in my VM host which is running OSX 10.6 of which I have over 4GBs free. Does anyone know how I can get my VMs working again?
It is a well known issue and at the moment you have two options:
install new version from http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/4.1.18/VirtualBox-4.1.18-78361-OSX.dmg
downgrade your version to previous one: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Download_Old_Builds_4_1
