VirtualBox Critical Error - Windows 8

I installed VirtualBox under Windows 8, so I can use Windows XP in a virtual machine.

I successfully installed VirtualBox and I used the Windows XP image perfectly after the initial installation, but now when I try to start VirtualBox it shows this error:

Failed to create the VirtualBox COM object.
The application will now terminate.

I assume that you probably either solved it or abandoned it;), but just in case:

For me on Windows 7, the resolution was to right-click the shortcut icon for Virtualbox and click Run as administrator . I believe that the solution for Windows 8 is similar or possibly related to permissions too.
