I run a Win XP guest on a Win XP host. I corrupted a file & had to recreate it in VirtualBox. Basically, I went back to the console, pressed "new", gave it a title agan, RAM usage, etc. & selected the drive which had already been created. I did not reinstall. However VRDP stopped working even though the Vbox is running headless. I have installed guest additions.
It's been a while since I initially configured this... Did I miss a step or should this be working?

Re: Windows XP VRDP stopped working!
Did the old VM use snapshots? If yes then attaching to the base VDI from another VM would be a big no-no.
Other than that I don't use VRDP and can't help.

It's good to know that I shouldn't do that. But I didn't do it in this case.mpack wrote:Did the old VM use snapshots? If yes then attaching to the base VDI from another VM would be a big no-no.
