Description
Steps done:
- use Virtualbox manager to start a virtual machine
- so dome work using your virtual machine
- press the X to power off the machine and make sure that "restore to snapshot YY" is checked.
- close Virtualbox manager
- open Virtualbox manager again to start the machine again
- you are now presented with an error message telling you that the hard disk could not be found:
Could not find an open hard disk with UUID {guid_1}
Result Code: VBOX_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND (0x80BB0001)
Component: VirtualBox
Interface: IVirtualBox {guid_2}
The guid written to the .VirtualBox\VirtualBox.xml is not the same as the guid of the new snapshot .vid file (seems to me that it actually does not write to the file but keep the old guid, thereby creating a mismatch when it starts up again). The xml file for the machine seems to be correctly updated tho.
Furthermore this behavior does not always happen, but only sometimes (some rare issue when writing to disk maybe?).
The solution as of now to this problem is to replace the xml files and the snapshot folder with a backup so that the guid's are in sync again. Just editing the xml file does not work for some reason.
Operating System: Windows 7, 64Bit
Extensions installed: Oracle VM Virtual Box 4.0.4r70112
