Any VM won’t open after I’ve updated to Sequoia, worked fine on Sonoma on VirtualBox version 6.1 (I don’t remember which issue I had with the latest 7.1 version, but it didn’t work, don’t have the logs unfortunately; thus I switched to 6.1 and it worked, maybe the issue was with permissions) Tried opening via Terminal, headless mode works, but regular doesn’t
Deleted everything related to VirtualBox, reinstalled, gave full access to the disk
When I try to register a new VM in the terminal it gives me this error
VBoxManage: error: Runtime error opening '/Users/*username*/testtt' for reading: -102 (File not found.). VBoxManage: error: /Users/vbox/tinderbox/6.1-mac-rel/src/VBox/Main/src-server/MachineImpl.cpp[499] (nsresult Machine::initFromSettings(VirtualBox , const com::Utf8Str &, const com::Guid)) VBoxManage: error: Details: code NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005), component MachineWrap, interface IMachine, callee nsISupports VBoxManage: error: Context: "OpenMachine(Bstr(szVMFileAbs).raw(), machine.asOutParam())" at line 83 of file VBoxManageMisc.cpp
upd: The "not found" error was my fault, the terminal command searches for the vm in the user folder, when in actuality it is in the VirtualVM’s folder.
I tried moving the vm in the user folder, the first error message changes, but I still cannot register it.
For the record, this is MacBook 7.1 mid 2010 running with OLCP. Sequoia works much better than Sonoma so I really don’t want to revert back to it.
Doesn’t matter which version of Windows I choose, creating any VM and trying to launch whether with an .iso file in the optical driver or not doesn’t do anything.
The errors that I’m getting on 7.x

Running kextstat in the terminal gives me this. Does this mean these kexts are missing?
When I use the ls -l commands to find the mach_kernel file anywhere in the system it says no file found
