I have the exact same error. First time I have had a problem with V-Box. I had to disable USB in settings to get my virtual machine to run. I am running a host of Windows 10 and the guest is Windows 10 also.

I found a work-around for this. When the VBox network manager dialog box pops up, instead of clicking on <Download>, rather click on the Website Url above the <Download> button. This takes you to the browser which downloads the Extension Pack directly. Then manually execute the Extension pack file from wherever you have stored it. This will install the extension pack. Job done.
I haven't had any feedback from Vbox support about this. Obviously a bug in the network manager of the latest version.
