See section 3.3.2 in the user manual. This (works only for Linux guests) is a current limitation.

What would it take to have VirtualBox disable nonfunctional menu items? Isn't that the standard for GUIs?

comment:3 by Klaus Espenlaub, 9 years ago

VirtualBox doesn't know "authoritatively" which OS is running in the VM (you could misdeclare a Linux guest as Windows 8), and therefore we don't consider it to be a good solution to disable the menu item. It's stupid, I know.
