Hi,
Today I couldn't run a Windows 10 VM on a Mac Host, nor update my VirtualBox 6.x to version 6.1.14. In both cases I receive an error saying that the 'Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)'. I don't remember to have updated High Sierra since the last time I run VirtualBox, nor changed anything in my system.
By searching in the forum, I see that this may be caused by the VB kernel extensions being blocked by High Sierra. EtreCheck says, actually, that all the VB extension are not loaded:Avast High Sierra System Extension Blocked Legacy Developer Hp

The trick of going to the Security System Preference didn't work, since there is no button to trust Oracle. Is there any other way to tell the Mac to load those extensions?
And, since I don't remember having changed anything in my system (apart for the usual cleaning with Cocktail), does this reveal some other type of issue?
Thanx!Paolo
