I tried looking into this myself but I couldn’t really find much about this error. The only solutions I could find didn’t work for me. The first one was to use mokutil but at the point where I was supposed to run sudo mokutil --import MOK.der it gives me the error message “Failed to get file status, MOK.der” even though I did everything it told me to do. The other one was to disable secure boot and then run sudo '/sbin/vboxconfig' but even though it looked like it worked, I’m still getting the error message. I have re-enabled secure boot, so you don’t have to worry about that.

Is there something else I can try or does VirtualBox not work in Linux Mint for some reason?

    Yayy, I have the same problem.

    Try a

    sudo systemctl enable --now libvirtd

    I dont know how manual everything is in Mint

    Also add your user to thr libvirt group

    groupadd libvit
sudo usermod -aG libvirt $USER

      Just FYI, if you want to enable and start, you can use systemctl enable --now ....
