Maybe there is no need to do that (for now).

I am now suspecting that the error message you are getting is non-fatal --- maybe you just need to close the "No Logs" tabs somehow, then you can get right back at business.

Perhaps you can try to see if any of the following work...

(1) Press the "Start" button on the top right hand corner?
or
(2) Go to the "Log" menu (top) and see if there is an option to close the log file tab?
or
(3) Click on "Tools" (left side) then click back again on the "FreeDOS 1.2ZZ" virtual machine?

(Anyway, on my machine at least, VirtualBox only creates logs (for VM execution) when you actually start running a VM. And the user interface is slightly different. Namely, the logs (if any) are shown in a different window.)

Thank you!
