VirtualBox never supported .vmx files. A .vmx file is the description for VMware virtual machines. But VirtualBox supports .vmdk files. A .vmdk file is the container format for virtual hard disk files used by VMware. You can simply attach .vmdk files to a VirtualBox VM, just open the harddisk from the VM settions. Probably the same for .vmc files versus .vhd: The former is the VirtualPC virtual machine file, the latter the format of the virtual hard disk used by VirtualPC. VirtualBox supports the latter, not the former. Kind regards, Frank -- Dr.-Ing. Frank Mehnert Senior Manager Software Development Desktop Virtualization, VirtualBox ORACLE Deutschland B.V. & Co.
