I've been trying to install Windows 10 to my virtual machine(VirtualBox) and this error keeps coming up whenever i locate the ISO file.

 

Failed to open the optical disk file C:\Users\David Kim\Desktop\Windows10_TechnicalPreview_x64_EN-US_10041.iso.

Could not get the storage format of the medium 'C:\Users\David Kim\Desktop\Windows10_TechnicalPreview_x64_EN-US_10041.iso' (VERR_NOT_SUPPORTED).

I think it's the ISO, I'm not really sure. I've never had this problem, try download the ISO again and let us know your result.

when i installed the virtual machine with w10 i also had a weird error, i can't remember which one, but what i did was to create a virtual machine with w8 and from there upgrade using the setup.exe inside the ISO

i guess this option is not viable if you have no acces to a reusable w8 key

The best way to measure the quality of a piece of code is "Oh F*** "s per line

Solved the problem. Changed the OS type from Windows 10 to 8.1 and it works
