18185	"Windows host removes HardDisks section if the version attribute is ""1.15-macosx"""	Shonn		"I have a Windows guest that I open in both Mac and Windows hosts. The Mac is the laptop that I use when I'm working remotely, and the Windows is my home office computer.

Usually, there isn't a problem with that, as long as I do a full shutdown of the guest before switching.

However, it seems that the Windows host will sometimes delete the MediaRegistry/HardDisks section in the .vbox file on opening if it has a version of ""1.15-macosx"". The same file is untouched if it has a version of ""1.15-windows"".

All of the changes that it does:
 - Removes MediaRegistry/HardDisks section
 - Sets Memory RAMSize from 8192 to 128
 - Removes Hardware/Display
 - Removes Hardware/VideoCapture
 - Removes Hardware/BIOS
 - Removes child elements and all attributes except type=""Am79C973"" from Network/Adapter slot=""0""
 - Removes Hardware/Clipboard
 - Removes Hardware/DragAndDrop
 - Removes StorageControllers"	defect	new	other	VirtualBox 5.2.22				Windows	all
