What happened?
When a vm has a lot of snapshots (> 200 ?), VirtualBox.exe crashes silently on launch. Vm has to have a .vdi disk.

How can we reproduce this?
Create a new vm through Oracle VirtualBox Manager, for example a Windows 10 vm named "w10_new1", with everything at default, without installing the guest OS. It should have a virtual hard disk (.vdi) created and attached. Close the program. Create 250 snapshots using vboxmanage:
for /l %i in (1,1,250) do @(vboxmanage snapshot w10_new1 take Snapshot%i)
Attempt to start the Oracle VirtualBox Manager again.
