Ticket #7756, comment 111
initial v1 5 5 1) **BEFORE ENDING** any VBox processes, I opened the directory where the VM's .vbox and Snapshots reside. I copied (using control-C, control-V) the {VM-Name}.vbox file and the Snapshots/{timestamp}.sav file.

Killing the process erased th isfile the first time it happened, which is why the BEFORE is critical.7 Also, apparently, the memory dump completes successfully, and it hangs writing out the .vbox file.

Use Windows task manager to kill off the hung vbox process (this erases the memory-state's .sav file, which is why it's important to copy it. Yes, it's repeated because it's important)
