Has it ever worked before or is this the initial setup?
If the latter is the case then the installation is still incomplete. and the message tells you where to look.

Load kernel modules

Prior to using VirtualBox kernel modules must be loaded. Either restart your system or load it manually.

VirtualBox might come with a window prompting you to run either

• /sbin/rcvbox
• /sbin/vboxconfig

These commands are for other operating systems and does not exist on Manjaro.

The command to (re)load VirtualBox kernel modules on Manjaro is

$ sudo vboxreload

Hey @KDE! Now I’m not going to say anything about “why it happend” or “what does this command do” but how to fix this problem. So, try these commands to fix the problem.

IMPOTANT:- You have to run these commands on separate reboots! After each reboot and commands try this VBoxManage --version (to ensure that virtualbox is fixed)

sudo /sbin/vboxconfig
If that doesn’t work:-
sudo /sbin/rcvboxdrv setup
sudo /usr/lib/virtualbox/vboxdrv.sh setup

Tell me if these didn’t work.
