preventing vbox autostart


Reloaded OS (debian 11) after 100% disk failure, and after installing Oracle vbox, vbox loads at every restart and gives the error that I need to specify the machine to start on the command line. I don't want to autostart anything, and I've been through the "autostart" files that I can think of in .config, systemctl, cron, rc., etc., and I'm at a loss where to turn this off.

fwiw, I have four machines that I had backed up, they run just fine after copying them to the new hd, and I'm not sure which machine vbox thinks it needs to load. Vbox was installed via apt, btw.

Any ideas?
