Hello everyone!
I was messing around with Virtual box today and I saw I installed the wrong version. I install 4.1. So need less to say I wanted to install 4.2. So I removed it from the Ubuntu Software Center. Rebooted just for good measure once it was done. I downloaded the latest version of Vbox off the official website and went to run it and i got this error.
Can anyone tell me what I can do to fix this?
Thanks
Also I'm sorry if I posted in the wrong place for it. Would seem fitting to be in the Virtualization section.
