All Snapshot Controls Missing

Post by YourEconProf »

Mac OS X 10.13.4 Host on cMP 5,1
VirtualBox 5.2.8 r121009
Two Win10Pro Guests
One Win2016Svr Guest

I finally got my test lab set up and am ready to start testing, so I wanted to take snapshots of all of the images, but I cannot find *any* controls for snapshotting. I've read the manual a few times, and I should see a 'snapshot' button on the upper right of the main pane, and in the 'machine' menu and the contextual menu when clicking on a VM, but none are there.

I don't see anywhere that these features aren't available on Mac OS X, or any place to enable/disable them. Any ideas?

You are correct, the Snapshots actions are missing from the menus, an oversight that *needs* to be corrected.

To access the Snapshots, click on the downwards arrow in the icon with the hammer (Machine Tools) and select "Snapshots". You will have a new "tab", similar to the "Details" tab shown.
Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.
