Stuck on Starting Local Machine after upgrade

Hi Everyone,
After upgrading to 2.3.0 it’s starting to hang again on Starting Local Machine.

I have Windows 10 Machine with Bitdefender security installed

Error Log

Hi Mark,

Sorry for the trouble!

Can you please try manually upgrading to VirtualBox v5.2.8? Here’s the direct link to the installer/upgrader: https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/5.2.8/VirtualBox-5.2.8-121009-Win.exe

Once you’ve done that, try the following:

  1. Open VirtualBox
  2. Check the status of local-by-flywheel
  3. If it’s on, right-click on it and go to Close » ACPI Shutdown
  4. Once local-by-flywheel is “Powered Off”, re-open Local

Hi Clay,
That did the trick thank you

Mark
