Description
host: Windows 7 If you initiate host system shutdown with the VirtualBox GUI still being open you get multiple errors about not being able to write registry (?) keys ("The global Extradata-key GUI/Toolbar could not be set to the value of {}" and other such messages). This has also been true for various 5.0.x releases. I cannot remember if this has ever happened with any 4.x. versions.

Actually a duplicate of #14823.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
The reason is that Windows shutdown kills the VBoxSVC process first and later the VirtualBox process. The latter depends on the former. Of course this is something to be fixed.
