Here is my configurations

Windows 8 virtualbox 5.2.14 minishift-1.20.0-windows-amd64

Here are the messages I got when I tried to start minishift:

minishift start --vm-driver virtualbox -- Starting profile 'minishift' -- Check if deprecated options are used ... OK -- Checking if https://github.com is reachable ...

Last error: Maximum number of retries (60) exceeded. Retrying. Error starting the VM: Error starting stopped host: Too many retries waiting for SSH to be available. Last error: Maximum number of retries (60) exceeded

It seems the VM is running but for some reasons not accessible. Any ways to fix this? Thanks!

I've ran into the same issues some days ago and managed to solve it by installing the latest version of Win32-OpenSSH.

Please take a look at https://github.com/minishift/minishift/issues/1565 and https://github.com/PowerShell/Win32-OpenSSH/wiki/Install-Win32-OpenSSH for a detailed description of the issue and an installation guide.
