My virtual machine (Virtual Box) stop working, it does not accept a mouse nor my keyboard

This issue is in Oracle VirtualBox Manager with Ubuntu at the latest update. Two days ago, I turned on my virtual machine (connected to a public network), and it enters immediately to the desktop, skipping the user login, but I ignored it. After that, the VM did not capture my mouse.

I'm in the newest version of the VB, so I restart the Virtual Box, but it did not help. I already disabled and enabled the mouse capture, I try with the physical keyboard and soft keyboard, but none of them are being captured by the machine or get an actual response. I add more memory to the machine, changed the system's pointing device to the 3 options, and none of them works. I also try to drag a file from my windows desktop, and it's just stuck in the Ubuntu desktop however, it did not help at all. I have to mention that since the last update, I kept getting the notification that there was an error, and if I wanted to report it, and I always marked "yes" anyways I did not worry about it:(

I don't want to lose all the files and information I have in my VM, so I'm trying to fix this. Can somebody please help me?
