Already confirmed in Windows and Linux (KDE) hosts. … … 11 11 == Instructions to reproduce the bug: == 12 12 13 1. Begin with Virtualbox version 5.2 with some guest machines.13 1. Begin with !Virtualbox version 5.2 with some guest machines. 14 14 2. Create a group with 2 or more machines 15 15 3. Rename the group using accented characters (for example á é ç ã etc) 16 16 4. Move the position of any machine upwards or downwards inside the group. 17 - It works perfectly in this version of VirtualBox 5.x18 5.

On Virtualbox 6.x it is '''NOT''' possible to rename the group back to accented characters (generally they are generated using 2 key presses: the accent followed by the standard letter), but here is where you will see '''ANOTHER RELATED BUG:''' My Brazilian Portuguese Keyboard has a key with the letter "ç" andVirtualbox 6.x just accepts the letter "ç" and enters in the bug condition described above.27 2. Whenever any machine group is named using accented characters, Virtualbox is completely unable to cleanly shutdown. I have already described this failure mode in another completely different bug report: https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/18318 . The main bug is described here and whenever it is fixed, the other bug is going to be fixed as well as it is only a collateral effect of the bug reported here.26 1.
