on the services page in the CCM can you click the disk icon next to one of the services and save the output and post it here.

It's line 65 of that output we need to look at because the one you checked on the file system was already reverted to a snapshot

Ok, none of the services have a host assigned.

So in the CCM, add localhost to each of these services and click save, once they are all added, Apply Configuration

Each one is already assigned a localhost as you can see in the attached.
Please advise why resetting to the factory default is not working with me

Done with no luck.

I am getting this error when apply configuration "Error: Service has no hosts and/or service_description (config file '/usr/local/nagios/etc/services/localhost.cfg', starting on line 65)"

Please advise why the system is not going to factory default?! is it because on virtual machine?

I actually do not know why it is failing however it will never reset the VM, it is supposed to just remove the configurations.

The last think I can suggest is to place the attached file in /usr/local/nagios/etc/import/
localhost.cfg
Then run Apply configuration.

This should overwrite your current setting.

If it still fails, I would suggest re-downloading the VM from our website.
