Hello All
I created a batch file to startup a specific VM using VBoxManage. I know that if I have the VM in full screen mode the last time it was shut down, it will start up in full screen again. However, I would like to force it to be full screen on startup with the same batch file if possible and can I disable the keyboard shortcut "ctrl + F" from batch file to prevent switching from fullscreen mode ? Host and guest are Windows OS.
Thanke You for ansver.

You should have a searchable PDF included with your installation (Help » Contents). If not, there's the on-line manual in PDF format, again searchable. Take advantage of that fact, and use it to search the PDF for the terms that interest you.
