Looking for ideas on how to detect when our Windows application is running in one of the following VM environments. Some starter ideas for detection are in parentheses. There may be (much) better detection techniques - the starter ideas I've come up with are based on my Google research so far. - VMWare (have an optional Program Files\VMware Tools folder) - Microsoft Virtual PC (have a device named "Virtual HD" for IDE disks, "MS Virtual SCSI Disk Device" for SCSI disks) - Citrix Xen - Sun Virtual Box
Note: There don't appear to be any Windows API/WMI calls, registry settings, or environment variables that indicate when an environment is running in a VM session. Any suggestions?
