Installing 6.0.8 and guest addons from that version solves the issue.

Duplicate of #18766.

comment:3 by mmikk, 5 years ago

Not quite, since my guest OS is Windows 10 and the #18766 says it does not happen under Win10.

I have exactly the same issue. Windows 10 guest and Ubuntu 19.04 host. 6.0.10 Guest addition installed and Win10 going into a reboot loop once logged in. Using the same VM on Win10 host I have no issue. Only difference is that Shared folders are only auto-mounted on linux host but unable to auto-mounted on Win10 host.. so it might be one reason for reboot-loop. Uninstalling guest addition also resolves the issue.

@mmikk

Yes it does happen with Win10 guests. See https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=93359 there are about 50 or so reports...

I insist that it's a duplicate... :)

In the newer versions it seems to be fixed, even if not intentionally, the issue does not occur anymore.

Thanks for the feedback, next time please also attach a VBox.log from such a failed VM run.
