Thank you... now were talking.  I haven't learned why that is the case
yet though.

 ls $HOME/.VirtualBox/*

  /cygdrive/c/Users/harry/.VirtualBox/VBoxSVC.log
  /cygdrive/c/Users/harry/.VirtualBox/VBoxSVC.log.1
  [...]
  /cygdrive/c/Users/harry/.VirtualBox/VirtualBox.xml
  /cygdrive/c/Users/harry/.VirtualBox/VirtualBox.xml-prev

Or from an actual windows cmd shell:
  dir %home%\.VirtualBox\  Shows the same stuff.

Is that settable somewhere in vbox?... I see nothing in `preferences'
or `settings' that seems likely.

Is there some ENV setting other than $HOME that will help?

How would Vbox loose sight of ~/.VirtualBox?

More importantly, how can I tell VBox where to look?

I do have the `Default Machine Folder' set to E:\vb\vm
But that isn't likely to be problem is it?
