Driver is probably stuck stopping/starting. Try 'sc.exe query vboxdrv' to get more information about its state. Rebooting may actually help

I installed the Webcenter 11.8 image on the Oracle VM VirtualBox. I encountered the following error "Driver is probably stuck stopping/starting. Try 'sc.exe query vboxdrv' to get more information about its state. Rebooting may actually help" when i tried starting it.

Similar issue were faced by used in past but all reffered to update a particular Microsoft security patch update KB3004394. But this update was not present in my system. So it seems there were some issues with starting of the VMware services in my local. I unistalled and reinsalled the Oracle VM VirtualBox. It fixed my problem.

If someone problem is not fixed even after uninsatlling and reinsatlling the  Oracle VM VirtualBox then you may refer to below links for help.
