With the VMware player it is quite easy to start a Guest OS directly from your Desktop, by assigning the the extension of the Virtual disk to the player. So you don't have first to start the player and then the guest OS
Is there an easy way to do this with the VBox.

Thanks

Yes, create a launcher and put this command in it. Replace <vmname> with the name of your VM. If it contains spaces, either escape it with a \, or enclose the full name with quotes ("").
