VirtualBox Manager crashes when selecting "Activities" pane after fresh installation

Description (last modified by jimiao)

When a VirtualBox 7.1.0 installed first time on Windows, and immediately select Activities from Tools pane, the GUI of VirtualBox manager crashes, and cannot reopen (e.g. from Start Menu) anyhow. I used VBoxManager CLI tool created an empty VM, and the GUI immediately restored with Activities pane showing up.

Here are my steps (unfortunately I don't know if this is a definite reproducible process)

  1. On a Windows host never had VBox installed.
  2. Install VirtualBox 7.1.0 (I installed extensions immediately after install VBox without open VBox GUI at all)
  3. Immediately switch to Activities Pane
  4. VirtualBox Manager GUI crashes, and cannot open back.

To Fix: Create an virtual machine from CLI.
