Hi there!

I just can see entries lie `00:00:01.273736 VMX - Virtual-Machine Extensions = 0 (1)`

But how to get the date? I much more need the date than a seconds value with a very very precise floating point value... ;-)

Have a look at the second line of the log.

Nothing with 2021...

None of those is the second line of the log. Being the second line of the screenshot doesn't count!

Sry. i don't unterstand - so how to get the Date?

I never use the inbuilt log viewer in VirtualBox - but I just tried it and it looks nothing like yours: there are scroll bars and my scroll bar "thumb" is very small and at the bottom - I can drag the thumb to the top to see the first few lines of the log. I find Notepad++ more familiar. Just go to the logs subfolder in the VM folder.

Thanks, will look on it!

"and it looks nothing like yours"

Is use VirtualBox 6.0.x, not 6.1.x... maybe that's the reason?

I'm using 6.1.18, but that is not the reason for the different visual appearance. That was, I assume, because you trimmed off the scroll bars for your screenshot.

Jan, in your "Nothing with 2021" screenshot, That log textbox always opens at the bottom of the log with the most recent log lines showing. You just have to scroll to the top of the shown log textbox. The second line shows the date of the last start.

Example from a 6.1.16 host, first two lines:

00:00:03.693638 VirtualBox VM 6.1.12 r139181 win.amd64 (Jul 10 2020 22:02:01) release log
00:00:03.693645 Log opened 2020-09-09T18:52:27.852405000Z

From a 6.0.14 host:

00:00:03.383675 VirtualBox VM 6.0.14 r133895 win.amd64 (Oct 10 2019 19:44:31) release log
00:00:03.383679 Log opened 2021-01-13T15:45:44.611579600Z

Oh, thank you very much!! :-)
