What should I do if the VirtualBox fails to start after the Win8 system is patched KB3045999?

  

May 23rd news, according to netizen feedback, a patch numbered KB3045999 released by Microsoft can cause the virtual machine software VirtualBox to fail to start properly. KB3045999 is an update released by Microsoft in April to fix a security vulnerability in Win7/Win8/Win8.1 and other systems. According to feedback from users, this problem can occur in Windows8 system. As for other versions of the system, is there any problem? The impact is still unknown.

The error message that appears in VirtualBox is as shown below:

The error text is: NtCreateFile(\\Device\\VBoxDrvStub) failed: Unkown Status - 5600 (0xffffea20) (rcNt=0xe986ea20)

VBoxDrvStub error: ntdll.dll: 7982 differences between 0x300c and 0x4fff in #1 (.text), first: 4c != 1f (rc=-5600)

Users say, reinstall VirtualBox can't solve this problem, only the KB3045999 update can be uninstalled. If you are experiencing this problem, you can uninstall it in the Control Panel ——Programs——Programs and Features——View Installed Updates found in KB3045999.

To prevent the system from automatically installing the update again, first set the system to "Automatically download updates, but let me choose which updates to install", and then manually check for updates, until the system detects it again. After the update, right-click on the detected update and select "Hide Updates" to temporarily block it. Or turn off automatic updates first, wait for Oracle or Microsoft to solve this problem.
