VirtualBox 7.2.2 has just been released

Oracle today announced the first maintenance update for the recent release of VirtualBox 7.2, fixing critical startup errors and making TPM emulation on Linux work again.

VirtualBox 7.2.2 fixes issues with virtual machines not starting on Windows on ARM (WoA) devices. Improvements to WoA were the main focus of the initial 7.2 releases, so it was necessary to ensure that virtualization would run smoothly on Microsoft's newer ARM laptops.

This update also addresses an issue with the emulated Trusted Platform Module (TPM) not working on Linux hosts, which is ideal for those who need to work specifically with TPM-supported features or operating systems (such as a specific version of Windows, etc.).

Rounding out the Windows-focused fixes, VirtualBox 7.2.2 supports setting light/dark mode independently of the main system setting, and Windows Guest Additions can (once again) be installed on Windows XP SP2 64-bit.

Oracle VirtualBox is an open source virtualization software for Windows, macOS, Linux and Solaris. It is free to use (no licenses, subscriptions or restrictions) and you can download the latest version from the official website.

In addition to the main application, you should also download the VirtualBox Extension Pack ( VirtualBox 7.2.2 Extension Pack) which adds additional features and options not found in the basic version of VirtualBox.

Although the press releases will range from very select to rare, I said I'd pass...because sometimes the editors hide.
