Ubuntu 25.04 as host and Windows 10 as guest on VirtualBox

	I run Ubuntu 25.04. On it I gave Oracle VirtualBox 7.2.0.
	I have a Windows 10 installation that used to work. (I think last time I tried it was when I was still using Ubuntu 24.10 and it was an older version of VirtualBox. (I think it was 7.0)

	Now when I try to start the Windows guest I get a popup error message about a critical error and I get the following log.

	I also tried to create a new Virtual machine and install Windows in that, but when I try to start that machine I get the same error popup.

	Any idea how can I convince VirtualBox to work again?
