Start Application in Virtual Machine
Posted: 27. Aug 2009, 09:07
Hello, is there a way to get a Shell Extension Entry in Windows like 'Start in Virtual Machine' which will open the virtual machine and open the File in there?
or at least some way to do it, so i dont have to copy a application to the shared folder, go to the Virtual Machine, go there to the Shared Folder, click the file..?
Like some sort of Temp folder, and Guest Addition & a little application for the Host, so it will Automaticly copy the file to the Shared Folder, issue a command, so the Virtual Mashine (windows) starts the App.
or some other way D:
//EDIT
Ok, ive made a Batch to 'search and copy' and so...
now the only Prblem left is, is t possible to issue a Command to Virtual Box so i can 'start' the app? something like blahblah.exe -blah "cmd.exe C:\blahblah\%1?
