Description
Dear Sir/Madam,
While installing virtualbox.4.3.6 on my windows 8 machine I encountered an error
"Failed to create extraction path 'C:\Users\XXXXX\AppData\Local\Temp\VirtualBox': VERR_PATH_NOT_FOUND" upon looking into it,I found that the extraction path defined in the installer is "C:\Users\$s\AppData\Local\Temp \VirtualBox" where $s is the user account, please note the 'space' after Temp, I am not sure this can cause any problem as the address when typed in the address bar opens the %temp% folder, when I changed the path to "D:\VirtualBox", it installed smoothly without any problem. please see to it Regards
