VirtualBox Attached Media Conflict

This is for posterity sake, in case the same error happens again. Somehow, an image of VirtualBox Guest Additions media got "stuck" in the VM settings and my Windows 10 VM refused to load. Scary error in VirtualBox...

The solution was simple, but took a while to flail and eventually Google my way to it: How-To: Resolve Attached Media Conflicts in VirtualBox

Edit corresponding .vbox XML file and remove <Image> element from <DVDImages>:
