Genymotion unable to load VirtualBox engine on Windows 10

I recently upgraded to Windows 10 BUILD 10130 and for some reasons, Genymotion doesn't seem to be working. It says "Unable to load VirtualBox Engine."

Now i did a bit of research and all the solutions suggested to Delete the Host-only network from Virtual Box settings. Well here's the thing i don't have any networks listed there. And the one which i found on the Network and Sharing center cannot be deleted.

Even a clean install hasn't solved the issue

Please help.

Step 1: Run VirtualBox as administrator

Step 2: Go to File -> Preferences -> Network -> Host Only Networks

Step 3: Add a new one or just edit an old one (if not work, delete all existed and create a new one):

Adapter Tab:
    IPv4 Address:        192.168.x.201
    IPv4 Network Mask:   255.255.255.0
DHCP Server Tab:
    Server Address:      192.168.x.100
    Server Mask:         255.255.255.0
    Lower Address Bound: 192.168.x.101
    Upper Address Bound: 192.168.x.199
