> Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Whonix-Workstation.

When I attempt to start the inaccessible workstation, this error message appears:

As a result, you will not be able to operate virtual machines that use these files until they become accessible later.”Īlthough “Aborted” no longer appears (and it now says “Powered Off”), it is accompanied by the following in the storage display: “One or more virtual hard disks, CD/DVD or floppy disk image files are not currently accessible. Following advice on the VirtualBox forum, I then went to the “Whonix-Workstation” folder on the host computer, removed the most recent “.vbox” file (which was a few KB in size), and replaced it with the “previous” file (I changed its extension from “.vbox-prev” to “.vbox” so that it would be recognized). While using a workstation, the program shut off abruptly, and upon going to the VirtualBox interface to start it again, it said “Aborted” instead of “Powered Off”.
