Hi, I just installed VirtualBox and am trying to make it stealthy. I type the command from the manual: VBoxManage setextradata “VM name” “VBoxInternal/Devices/pcbios/0/Config/DmiBIOSVendor” “Dell” and VBoxManage setextradata “VM name” “VBoxInternal/Devices/pcbios/0/Config/DmiSystemVendor” …

I actually had a similar problem when it came to typing directly from the command line so I just used this program to do it and it worked for me :upside_down_face:

Thank you very much. I tried that program initially and I got the following error: VBoxManage.exe: The machine is not mutable (state is unsaved) VBoxManage.exe: Details: code VBOX_E_INVALID_VM_STATE … blah … blah … blah Then it goes on to say that it is applying the System , BIOS, and MotherBoa…

:thinking: That’s strange, were you trying to run it while your VM was open? If so that could be why the state is unsaved.

I think sk is right. That can sometimes cause problems. I’ve not encountered this problem and I’m having trouble recreating it, so I’m not entirely sure. Have you tried the code that was posted sometime ago here?

Yes, I ran the code while the VM (as well as the HOST machine) was not running. Unknown, which code was “posted sometime ago here”. I am new to this forum and did some searching. I did run across the code that SK advised and have been trying to use that. There may be a command in the scrip file …

OK guys. Thanks for your help. I finally got it to a state that is workable. I still don’t know what is wrong, since I get the “not mutable” error. However, I deleted the old image and made a new one. The first time I ran the batch program, it made the change. I then ran it again to fine tune …

What might be preventing my VBox from changing the System name?
