VirtualBox

Hi, I'm trying to install VirtualBox 5.2.44 (32 bit), both from the terminal and directly from the site but there was nothing to do. Could you kindly help me, keeping in mind that I have only started to get closer to the "Linux" world a few days ago, so I ask you to have a little patience, thank you.

Re: VirtualBox

VB 5.2.44 is unsupported for 4 years now. It is available only for Debian 8 & 9. It is also the latest version providing 32-bit binaries.
Recent versions of Q4OS are based on Debian 11 (Q4OS 4) and Debian 12 (Q4OS 5). I guess you are using one of these; probably the reason why VB 5 can't be installed.
