Mac OS extension blocked installing Virtual Box

king612

I am trying to set up the VM for all the coding work on a Mac with Monterey 12.2.1. VirtualBox install complained about an extension that will be incompatible in the future. I used the security pref's to allow it. Has anybody else run into this? My machine is a 2019 MBPro so no M1 chip I don't think.

Has this caused issues for anyone during the course? (I'm just getting started)

Thanks,
John

@Bobbijn Sorry, I meant how do you set it back to UNanswered? I have other issues that are not answered and remain unresolved. Apparently, anybody leaving a Common on their own issue or others automatically marks it as "Answered". Leaving a comment does not necessarily mean it is resolved, especially when fellow students are trying to help each other out. If anybody trying to help is filtering by non-Answered posts, they are missing a lot of open items that are blocking people.

This is solved. Multiple Google posts on allowing it under Mac preferences / security

Also, note you must restart the Mac for the changes to take effect...

@king612, Look at your posts, the best way would be to start a new issue with a new forum post. Hope this helps, Bobbi
