An error has occurred while configuring VirtualBox host-only network interface "VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter #2


After successfully installing VirtualBox and Genymotion, I can't start genymotion and it gives this error:

An error has occurred while configuring VirtualBox host-only network interface "VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter #2

I've uninstalled and reinstalled VirtualBox and also tried disabling antivirus but still problem persists. There is no VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter existing in network adapters list and it seems that Genymotion can't create it.


Solution

  • I uninstalled VirtualBox again

    and then reinstalled it but this time I installed it as Administrator and then do a restart.

    so the network adapters could get created and error solved.
