Description
I have upgraded the virtualbox to 6.1.28, and host-only network is not working.
on the gui of host-only network manager, there is only an empty list, and can't add an adapter. I also try to add an adapter by command line, but get exception as the following:
Progress state: E_FAIL VBoxManage.exe: error: Failed to create the host-only adapter VBoxManage.exe: error: Querying NetCfgInstanceId failed (0x00000002) VBoxManage.exe: error: Details: code E_FAIL (0x80004005), component HostNetworkInterfaceWrap, interface IHostNetworkInterface VBoxManage.exe: error: Context: "enum RTEXITCODE cdecl handleCreate(struct HandlerArg *)" at line 95 of file VBoxManageHostonly.cpp
could you help to solve this problem??

hi all,
I think that the problem in that VirtualBox dont create a host only adapter by default when it is installing. The option for install host adapter is selected by default
I disabled symantec endpoint protection and hp wolf security.
