I installed virtual box but it doesn't seem to run the OS I wanted to run. It says failed to open a session.

Does it have any remedy?

You unfortunately cannot run VirtualBox on Macs with Apple's M1 chip. There's still no word on whether the free VirtualBox VM environment will ever be updated to run on Apple Silicon.

You can try alternative: ParallelsDesktop

Hi,

Try to run ARM64 Linux instead.

What partition? VirtualBox does not create a partition. Just delete the files VirtualBox created.
