Description
Hello,
If the snapshots menu of a VM was selected when you open VBox, the GUI crashes and you need to restart it 2, 3 or more times until it finally shows up.
the VBoxSDS, VBoxSVC processes remain running and do not close themselves.
Same behavior with Version 7.0.10.
The workaround is to select the Details menu instead of Snapshots once the GUI opens. Then the next time VBox GUI will start normally.
This has been reported in the forum since version 6 but still happens the very same in version 7:
