I double clicked it, it said- Failed to create the VirtualBox COM object. The application will now terminate. Details- Callee RC: CO_E_SERVER_EXEC_FAILURE (0x80080005) – barlop May 10 '14 at 14:47

Works flawlessly if you wanna test pre-Lollipop versions in Genymotion. Thanks! – IgorGanapolsky Sep 21 '15 at 04:03

As of Genymotion v2.0, Geny has removed support for ARM, so there is no drag/n/drop support for the GApps packages. However, there is a flashable package available to let you flash GApps packages.
- Download the following ZIP: http://filetrip.net/dl?4SUOrdcMRv, and also download the GApps package, correspondent to your emulator's Android version. You can find 1.6 - 4.3.x GApps here: http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/Google_Apps. 4.4.x GApps are here: www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23311191640114013.
- Next Open your Genymotion VM and go to the Homescreen.
- Now Drag&Drop the Genymotion-ARM-Translation.zip onto the Genymotion VM window.
- It should say "
File transfer in progress", once it asks you to flash it click 'OK' - Now Reboot your VM using ADB or an app like ROM Toolbox. If nescessary you can simply close the VM window, but I don't recommend it.
- Once you're on the Homescreen again Drag&Drop the gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip(or whatever version you got) onto your VM, and click '
OK' when asked. - Once it finishes, again Reboot your VM and open the Google Play Store.
- Sign in using your Google account.
- Once in the Store go to the 'My Apps' menu and let everything update(fixes a lot of issues), also try updating
Google Play Servicesdirectly. - Now try searching for 'Netflix' and 'Google Drive'.
- If both apps show up in the results and you're able to Download/Install them, then congrats you now have ARM support and Google Play fully setup!

It's possible that your virtual machine isn't compatible with your Genymotion version; try deleting and redownloading the VM.

Most likely happened due to corrupted downloads. I have this problem and downloaded from one of the mirrors and found that they are of severely different file size. After that, all worked well and prompted me to flash it.
