Navigate to the folder into which you copied the cloned virtual machine folder, select the. On your Mac, open Parallels Desktop and go to File > Open. Parallels will handle creating the converted virtual machine in the correct place. It doesn’t matter where you paste the virtual machine folder. Head to that folder, select the folder for your cloned virtual machine, and copy that folder to your Mac (using a flash drive or some other means). Make a note of the path and then click “OK” or “Cancel” to close the dialog box. You’ll find the path to the Default Machine Folder on the General screen. If you’re not sure where this is, you can find out by going to File > Preferences on the main VirtualBox Manager window. You’ll find the folder for the virtual machine in the default machine location.

If your cloned virtual machine is on a Windows PC or a different Mac, you’ll need to transfer the virtual machine. Shut down (do not sleep or hibernate) the cloned virtual machine using the standard method for your guest operating system. Step Three: Shut Down and Transfer the Cloned Virtual Machine For example, in Windows 7, we open “Programs and Features” in the Control Panel, select “Oracle VM VirtualBox Guest Additions 5.1.12” and click “Uninstall/Change”. Use the standard procedure in the guest operating system to uninstall the “Oracle VM VirtualBox Guest Additions” program. To do this, select the cloned virtual machine in the list on the main VirtualBox Manager window and click “Start” or press Enter. Once the cloning process is complete, we need to uninstall the VirtualBox Guest Additions in the cloned virtual machine. Step Two: Uninstall the VirtualBox Guest Additions in the Cloned Virtual Machine This may take a while, depending on how big your virtual machine’s hard drive is and how many snapshots you have that need to be merged. Click “Clone”.Ī dialog box displays the progress of the cloning process. This is important because Parallels cannot open virtual machines from VirtualBox with snapshots. Make sure “Current machine state” is selected on the Snapshots screen.
This makes the cloned virtual machine independent of the original and allows you to move it to a different computer, if needed. On the Clone type screen, make sure “Full clone” is selected.
