Inability to run 6.0-6.1.7 upgrading to 6.1.6

[IamUSER]

After upgrading recently I am unable to launch vbox. The following error occurs on 6.1.6 and 6.1.7 (test). I tried rolling back versions and can successfully run 5.2.40 and lower. As soon as I cross into 6.0+ the error occurs. The VBoxSDS doesn't seem to want to run and no files are written to the .VirtualBox directory on 6.0+. I did have 6.1.x installed and running before upgrading to 6.1.6 but I do not remember which version specifically.

Failed to acquire the VirtualBox COM object.

The application will now terminate.

Completely failed to instantiate CLSID_VirtualBox: ERROR_SERVICE_REQUEST_TIMEOUT 0x8007041D.

Result Code: ERROR_SERVICE_REQUEST_TIMEOUT 0x8007041D (0x8007041D) Component: VirtualBoxClientWrap Interface: IVirtualBoxClient {d2937a8e-cb8d-4382-90ba-b7da78a74573}

I have tried:

1. Admin rights
2. Removing .VirtualBox directory
3. Cleaning registry
4. Comparability modes: Admin and older windows versions
5. Recover .VirtualBox files from backup
6. Update and verify all drivers
7. Remove all antivirus including defender
8. Hyper-V and VMware can run and have been removed
9. Extend service timeout length despite this being an immediate failure
10. Run bug report: WARNING: Failed to create the VirtualBox object (hr=0x8007041d)

Can provide bug report info if needed.
