11 | <li>
|
---|
12 | <p> Double-click the VM's name in the machine list in <ph
|
---|
13 | conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/vbox-mgr"/>. </p>
|

|
---|
15 | <li>
|
---|
16 | <p> Select the VM's name in the machine list in <ph
|
---|
17 | conkeyref="vbox-conkeyref-phrases/vbox-mgr"/>, and click <b outputclass="bold">Start</b>
|
---|
18 | in the toolbar the top of the window. </p>

|
---|
20 | <li>
|
---|
21 | <p> Go to the <filepath>VirtualBox VMs</filepath> folder in your system user's home
|
---|
22 | directory. Find the subdirectory of the machine you want to start and double-click the
|
---|
23 | machine settings file. This file has a <filepath>.vbox</filepath> file extension. </p>
|
---|
24 | </li>
|
---|
25 | </ul>
|
---|
26 | <p>Starting a virtual machine displays a new window, and the virtual machine which you selected will boot up.
|
---|
27 | Everything which would normally be seen on the virtual system's monitor is shown in the window. See <xref
|
---|
28 | href="Introduction.dita#Introduction/fig-win2016-intro"/>. </p>
|
---|
29 | <p>In general, you can use the virtual machine as you would use a real computer. The following topics describe a few
|
