What is a VBOX-EXTPACK file?

VBOX-EXTPACK files mostly belong to VirtualBox. VirtualBox Extension Pack files (VBOX-EXTPACK) are used exclusively by Oracle VM VirtualBox to add extra functionalities.
These files are compressed with the GZIP format and package additional drivers and utilities that VirtualBox needs to support features beyond its base installation.
Key functions include:

USB Device Support for faster connectivity

Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) access for virtual machines

Extra networking and hardware integration modules

They are installed directly through the VirtualBox Manager, which handles verification and ensures compatibility with your VirtualBox version.
