1. It's usually better and faster, if issues get first addressed in the ​VirtualBox forums, a lot more eyes there. More than 95% of the issues are resolved in the forums, which keeps the developers focusing on the bug fixes and enhancements, and there is no need for another ticket to keep track of. For example, yours is most probably not a bug and someone from the developers has to deal with it and close it as "Invalid".

Plus a discussion and analysis on the bug tracker is going to help me, is going to help you, and potentially a future drive-by user or two. Not so in the forums, many more tend to benefit...

2. You should have filled in the Host and Guest details, now they're at "Other" and "Other", it doesn't help categorize the ticket properly. Plus, you don't give any more details, and since Win10 as a guest is a really popular VM, the fact that it's happening to your VM only, should be a sign that something's wrong with that specific VM. If it was widespread, everybody and their cousin would be yelling! ;)

3. You were supposed to follow these steps when you filed the bug, and provide a VBox.log:

   Attach a (full) log file ("Machine" menu/"Show Log" in the main VirtualBox Manager window) straight away to save time for you and for us. The log file contains a lot of useful information about both the host and the guest systems as well as information about what happened during a particular machine run. Please do not cut and paste it.

You should open a new thread in the ​Windows Guests section of the forums. Please be sure to mention that you came from the bug tracker and include the ticket number.
