Disable Windows Subsystem For Linux and Virtual Machine Platform if you’re using Windows and VirtualBox. Happened to me when trying to install lubuntu 20.04 using VirtualBox 6.0.4 and WSL2 was enabled.

1. Shut down the Virtual Machine.
2. Press Windows logo key + X, then hit A to run Command Prompt(powershell) as administrator.
3. Typebcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off
4. When you see"The operation completed succesfully", reboot your windows. After reboot, boot your VM and update/upgrade.
