What does this mean that you "can't open" your "Virtualbox"? Moving registered ISO images somewhere (or making them inaccessible in some other way, e.g. deleting) will not prevent the VirtualBox application from functioning. It will only prevent a particular VM an ISO file is attached to from being started because it's hard to read information from the ISO file that is not available at the expected location (stored in the VM configuration data). The same relates to moving/deleting hard disk images outside VirtualBox, btw. > Excuse me for saying, but that's just plain stupid. > Can't they check for the existence of these files and simply ask if you > want to remove the reference to it since it no longer exists? This is exactly what happens now. Not when you start a VM (you will get an error message in that case complaining that xxx.ISO is inaccessible) but when you start the VirtualBox application or when you open the Virtual Disk Manager -- inaccessible media will be marked with exclamation mark icons there with the reason of inaccessibility being shown in a tool-tip. -- Dmitry A.
