permissions – Cannot add VHD to virtualbox unless running it as sudo

I have a VHD that I created from a Win 10 desktop. I installed virtualbox and virtualbox-ext-pack via apt-get install. If I run vitualbox from software center or from a terminal, I am unable to add the VHD file. When I navigate to its location, it does not show up. If I run virtualbox from terminal with sudo, the VHD file is visible and I can add it and access it in a VM.

I updated owner and group owner to my user and filer permissions to 777 on the VHD, but it still does not show when I run virtualbox as a regular user.

Do I need to add my user to a virtualbox group maybe?

I am running Ubuntu 20.04.
