Which version of VirtualBox should I install?
What VirtualBox version should I install for Genymotion?
The currently recommended version of VirtualBox to use with Genymotion is VirtualBox 7.0.26. Avoid using VirtualBox 7.1, as it is not recommended and may generate incompatibilities with Genymotion. Also, be aware that Genymotion Desktop and its guides indicate that on certain systems, such as Macs with M1/M2 processors, some configurations may vary and it is recommended to consider the native hypervisor when possible.

Useful notes:
- Genymotion usually includes specific version recommendations for Windows, Linux, and macOS; use the version indicated on the support page to avoid problems.
- It is also worth mentioning that, on some modern platforms, Genymotion is moving towards alternative hypervisors (e.g., QEMU for macOS/Linux) when possible, to improve compatibility and performance.
- Genymotion does not support Windows 7 (only supports versions supported by its latest release). Make sure to run a compatible operating system.
What operating system are you using Genymotion on (Windows, macOS, or Linux) and for what mode do you plan to use it (Desktop local vs. Cloud)? With that info, I'll leave you a more exact guide for your case.
