I am having trouble moving a virtual machine and would like some help.
I am using Vbox version 6.1.30 on a Windows 10 host.
My virtual machine is 120 GB in location
C:\Users\bradl\VirtualBox VMs\fedora33\fedora33.vdi
Method I:
In the VirtualBox GUI I tried right clicking on the virtual machine (while it was not running) and
the select Move.
This opened a folder select dialog and I the folder D:\virtualbox.
The result was a diaolog saying that virtual box is moving the virtual machine, but the progress bar
in the dialog did not show any progress.
After a while I tried to cancel the operation, but the program just hung.
I had to kill all my virtual box processes.
Method II.
In the VirtualBox GUI I tried openind the Virtual Media Manager.
I then selected fedora33.vdi the move button (while it was not running).
The result was a different dialog saying that virtual box was moving the
virtual machine.
This time a green bar kept sweeping across the dialog (over and over) without giving a real idea of
how much progress was made.
Once again I tried to cancel the operation and once again I had to kill all my
virtual box processes.
Method III:
In the directory c:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox I tried executing the
following command
VboxManage movevm fedora33 --type basic --folder D:\virtaulbox
The result this time was:
VBoxManage.exe: error: Unable to determine free space at move destination ('D:\virtaulbox\'):
VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
VBoxManage.exe: error: Details: code VBOX_E_IPRT_ERROR (0x80bb0005), component SessionMachine,
interface IMachine, callee IUnknown
VBoxManage.exe: error: Context: "MoveTo(Bstr(pszTargetFolder).raw(), Bstr(pszType).raw(),
progress.asOutParam())" at line 388 of file VBoxManageMisc.cpp
