You managed to open 6 duplicates! Not an easy thing to do in one minute!!! :)
Still, it's usually better and faster, if issues get first addressed in the VirtualBox forums, a lot more eyes there. More than 95% of the issues are resolved over there, which keeps the developers focusing on the bug fixes and enhancements, and there is no need for another ticket to keep track of. For example, yours is most probably not a bug and someone from the developers has to deal with it and close it as "Invalid".
So, if you can, please open a new thread in the VirtualBox on Windows Hosts section of the forums. Please be sure to mention that you came from the bug tracker and include the ticket number.

I think I know why the same submission was done multiple times. The link "All open bug tickets"( https://www.215389.xyz/report/1 ) has not been updated since 12/30/2018. The last ticket is #18248 as of today. So the submitter must have thought his/hers did not post there and tried again and again.
I know this will be fixed once the devs are back to work in 2018 (not a typo, quoting @socratis). ;-)

Make a small typo in the forums, and it haunts you for the rest of your life! :p
toracat, in the report that you linked to, the "Blockers" are listed first. Click on the "Modified" column. Twice...

Ah, THAT is the trick. Thank you! But I think https://www.215389.xyz/wiki/Bugtracker should have a link to that page ( https://www.215389.xyz/report/1?sort=modified&asc=0&page=1 ).
