Hello, Just use in Oracle VirtualBox 4.1.12 r77245, File, CTRL+D, Copy and that’s all. Work perfectly. Regards. daniel

Thanks for sharing this.

Mine kept failing and had to google to find out that if i have spaces in directory name and is on another drive say X:\VM 2012\source.vhd, then i have to use “X:\Vm 2012\source.vhd” and same for target.

so it should be:
VBoxManage clonehd “X:\Dir Name\source.vhd” “X:\Dir Name\target.vdi” –format vdi
