Unhandled error when ungrouping group who shares name with sibling VM
Reported by: | imbibe | Owned by: | |

Description
If a group shares it's name with a grouped VM an unhandled error occurs if you attempt to ungroup said group.
On occasion this can result in a freeze followed by crash.
However, if another group on the level being ungrouped to shares it's name with VM a warning is displayed.
I suggest handling the error and presenting the same warning.
Error:
Failed to save the settings of the virtual machine work to /[~]/VirtualBox VMs/work/work/work.vbox.
Could not rename the directory '/[~]/VirtualBox VMs/work/work' to '/[~]/VirtualBox VMs/work' to save the settings file (VERR_ALREADY_EXISTS).

Warning:
You are trying to move machine work to group which already have sub-group work.
Please resolve this name-conflict and try again.
Please reopen if still relevant with a recent VirtualBox release.
