How do I access Vbox Manage? Can't find anywhere in the manual on how to access Vbox Manage. Where is it?
Want to change Display Settings & the manual gives explanation of how to do it but not Where, is it a separate program or a commnad line & where can I get it or how do I access it?
Thanks

VBoxManage is a CLI command tool to configure and control VirtualBox and the Virtual Guest. You can see the syntax and usage in your VirtualBox users manual.
To use the tool you must be in a command window and in the directory that has the VBoxManage.exe file. Look in the directory for Program Files\Oracle\....
If you place this directory in the Windows environmental variables you can access VBoxManage and other commands from any place and not necessarily in the exact directory.
