Sealing the VM is used within the Windows Guest OS via this command:
'C:\Windows\System32\Sysprep\sysprep.exe /oobe /generalize /shutdown'
or
'C:\Windows\System32\sysprep\sysprep.exe' (then: Select 'Enter System
Out-of-Box-Experience (OOBE)' and check the 'Generalize' checkbox)
Once Windows restarts, you should see your configuration applied to the OS.

To change any of the properties you may need to.

One needs to set the OS properly within the VM New / Edit functionality for
this to work. Then one can choose Cloud-Init/Sysprep and a configuration
such as to set the Time Zone.
If the Guest OS is Windows, then Sysprep is used, if Linux then Cloud Init
is used.
