open the VirtualBox.dmg again and follow the steps to install it then at the end it will say installing failed or some kind of error.

Open: System Preferences > Security & Privacy . then on the bottom of that window you will see a message to allow access to the virtual box just click that and open Virtual Box you will be good to go but after this i ran into another problem which is not that improtent related to Bridge Adapter. :

Failed to open/create the internal network 'HostInterfaceNetworking-en0' VirtualBox?

IF THAT NOT FIXED THAT ISSUE

If reinstalling hasn't fixed the issue, check and see if you have SIP enabled. In my case it was disabled and re-enabling it did the trick. I suspect that if it's disabled, you know how to enable it, but just in case: reboot into recovery mode, sign in with your user account, go to utilities > terminal and run

csrutil enable && reboot

This fixed the issue for me.

FOR NETWORK ISSUE

If network VM cant connect, just adjust network setting, on Network Tab, set "Attached To -> NAT "
