Post by lvzhthhx »

Hi Experts,

I would like to download some vbox 5.1 zip files from https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/, but I dont's know the exact veriosn name.
In fact, I would like to have some vbox 5.1 binary files whose name likes 'https://www.virtualbox.org/download/tes ... in-pdb.zip'.

Anyone can help me about that?

Thank you very much!

[Mod edit: Moved to "Using VirtualBox" from "VirtualBox OSE". This has nothing to do with VirtualBox Open Source Edition]

Specific test builds that are odd-numbered do not live for very long, I believe mostly a week. So either download the latest Test Build, or a stable release. And wha't the "pdb" at the end? Where did you see the test build mentioned?

I don't think that I made myself clear. Let me try again.

Test builds are NOT permanent.

That's why sometimes they have funky names. They address very specific needs and might break things that usually work. Do not use them unless specifically instructed by a developer.

I think it would be OK for me to download the binary files of vbox 5.1 version, I will have a test only now. So if you know them could you tell me? Thank you!

I have tried this link, but unfortunately, no these files, such as VBoxMergeModules-5.0.27-111227.zip found there.
In fact, for vbox 5.0. only 5.0.26 can be download from https://www.virtualbox.org/, but not 5.0.27.
