Cannot Insert Linked Cloned Into Group
Reported by: | Zvika Dror Zend | Owned by: | |
---|---|---|---|
Component: | VM control | Version: | VirtualBox 4.3.26 |

Description
Failed Scenario
Inserted a Base VM into a new Group
Created a snapshot while VM is off
Cloned the snapshot into a new Linked Clone
The linked clone appears on /VBOX main folder, and not under the Group folder
Extra: Moving out of the group in Vbox UI and in again, or to another group and back, keeps it in the Main Vbox folder
Workaround
Before cloning base VM, move it out of any group to main Vbox folder
Clone base VM
Move Base and Clone VMs into the group

This problem still occurs in version 5.0.12, with a little difference:
- the linked clone ICON appears on the same group of the base install (which is right), but
- the VIRTUAL MACHINE FOLDER are created outside the group folder (which is wrong)
The workaround in version 5 is simpler: drag the icon out of the group, and then back to the group
Sorry - title should be:
