I have to recall my last message. I did some extra issues on the bug and opened a new bug:
https://github.com/BOINC/boinc/issues/5975
For now, removing the folder virtualbox in projects allow you to start without reinstalling again. You have to do it every time. Compared to my Windows computer, this folder should not be there.

Presumably this only happens with projects that require VB. Does it only happen with one project? If so, could it be the Mac app from the project not clearing up after itself rather than a BOINC issue?

That said, in an ideal world the BOINC code should be resilient enough to cope with that.

Whatever the cause though, I think your latest discovery should go a long way in tracking down the source of the problem.
