Ticket #18337, comment 4
v1 v2 1 A prompt should exist. My shortcut created for a VM named "Ubuntu" overwrote an existing shortcut. No warning was given and the existing shortcut had nothing to do with VirtualBox. It is not difficult to click Create Desktop Shortcut by accident. The consequence, as socratis explains, is data loss. If you feel warnings are excessive, you should instead work to adda "Do not show this prompt again" option (and a reset in preferences).1 A prompt should exist.
