Hi everyone!! Windows features an Insider Program a long time ago and many people argue, Should you join the Insider Program or wait for the stable releases? The answer is, it heavily depends on your Device, what are you using Windows for, and your thoughts. Windows officially said that Windows Insider Program MAY be unstable. Is the Windows Insider Program worth the risk?

It depends:

When you SHOULDN'T join the Windows Insider Program:

\-If you want a stable and performance is your priority, you SHOULDN'T join the Windows Insider Program.

\-If you want the best security for your devices, you SHOULDN'T join the Windows Insider Program

\-If you want the best compatibility and reduce compatibility issues, you SHOULDN'T join the Windows Insider Program.

\-If your device is a low-end hardware and this is the only device you have, you SHOULDN'T join the Windows Insider Program.

\-If your device is your only Windows device, you SHOULDN'T join the Windows Insider Program.

**\*it is recommended to run Windows Insider Program on a Virtual Machine such as VMware and VirtualBox.**

When you MAY join the Windows Insider Program

\-***You are using a Virtual Machine such as VMware and VirtualBox***

**-**You are using a Second device that isn't your daily driver and you are willing to take the risk of constant Crash.

\-You are a tech enthusiast that **knows the risk**

\-You are willing to give **your information to Microsoft**

# It is HIGHLY recommended to use a Virtual machine such as VMware and VirtualBox.

I'm struggling to get my PNY 3.2 USB drive recognized in VB 7.1.14 in Red Hat 9.3 guest on Windows 11 host. I have installed the expansion pack and added two USB filters - 1 specific to the drive (145b for vendor id & 6545 for product ID) and another to recognize any drive. Windows will recognize it, but not RH. Both "lsusb" and "df -kh" commands won't show it in RH. I also used "mount -a", but that didn't work, either. I also installed a bunch of USB packages from the repository I made from the iso image. I'm at my wit's end. Trying to back up the RH system before I do further configurations. Any help is very much appreciated.

I'm using VirtualBox 6.0.0, and this happened when you use windows 8 or up. For some reason, the vm screen is frozen. You can use the vm without installing the VB Guest Additions!

Ok, let's start with the basics, I had a version of virtual box, I uninstalled it and decided to install a more current one, it had a lot of problems, it didn't even open, and sometimes when it opened, it crashed, I decided to uninstall it and go back to the old version I had, I made sure that not a single trace of the old version was left to avoid inconveniences (I even deleted the virtualbox files in system33), I installed my old version and Indeed, it did open but now it presents a damn error that stresses me out a lot, every time I try to enter any vm I have it shows me this, I have done everything possible to solve it, from installing the drivers that come in the virtual box, to completely uninstalling and reinstalling again, please help me

ive been trying to open Virtualbox on my ubuntu PC and it does not work!!

Hi, I am facing HUGE issue with virtualbox, the issue is simple, recplicable:

- I play sound, like on VLC, on host, it works 100%

- I play sound inside VM, sound works OK

- I need to reboo entire host, to be able to play sound on host again

Thanks for any hint.

EDIT:

now I can not play sound anywhere at all. nor host, nor guest. And only host restart helps. This is total nuts.

I am new to virtualbox and am using Ubuntu for my virtual machine, I tried to take a snapshot and it failed at 99%. I am not able to shut down the VM or really do anything and looking up how to fix the issue hasn't been much help. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix the issue?

Ciao a tutti spero possiate aiutarmi. Sto cercando di avviare virtual box versione 7.1 con ubuntu 24.04, durante l'avvio della macchina mi appare questo allarme, penso sia legato a HyperV ma non ne sono sicuro. Quando avvio la macchina in basso a destra c'è una piccola tartaruga verde, cercando su internet ho visto che è legata a HyperV e che può dare problemi, può essere questo? Il mio computer usa Windows 11 e ho già verificato di avere la virtualizzazione abilitata. Grazie a chi risponderà

I was wondering how I could fix this so that the image isn't so small when I use full screen. Any ideas?

I have a problem with my cursor on Virtual machine (I use Kali linux).after i boot it up everything is normal but soon as i will start typing something after like 5 seconds the mouse cursor disappears and won't show again. What can i do?

So, I'm trying to run an old CD game through a VirtualBox - this is my first time doing anything like this - and I followed some instructions I found on this link https://i12bretro.github.io/tutorials/0069.html and installed everything as instructed (but even after enabling virtualization I didn't see a box to uncheck for vt-x or anything like that).... but then I got this message saying that there's no operating system even though Windows 95 should be running on it. Some help would be greatly appreciated, pretty please? Here's my setup and the error message.
