Where does Virtual Box find its list of VMs? Ie the Machine Registry. When I run VirtualBox Manager (or VBoxManage list vms) it shows a list of known VMs. These have their configurations (ie .vbox files) stored in various locations. But how does VB Manager (or VBoxManage) know where they all are? I am asking because my VBox Manager is looking for some VMs that are no longer there, but is it still able to display their names, marked as "Inaccessible". But how does it know where they should have been in order now to show that they are not there any more? In all my cases the files have been moved to a new location, but sometimes it wasn't done properly. So VBox Manager can only show the location where they no longer are.
This is on Windows. They all used to be under C:\Home\Virtual Box VMs, with some in C:\Users\Richard\Virtual Box VMs but I've moved some to another disk. The only VirtualBox.xml file that I can find was last modified long before I did those moves, and says that everything is under C:\Home, which it may have been once but no longer necessarily is, and whether they are or not they are still usable, so there must be something else that is telling VBox Manager where they ought to be. I am expecting that somewhere there is either a file listing them, or a registry entry, which I can edit in order to set the correct current locations. Regards, Richard.
