OK - new to Virtual Box this week - have my VM working fine, and was in a "Saved" state. Thought I would try the snapshot. This worked fine and I can see "Snapshot 1 (10 minutes ago)…Current State"

However when I now try to start my VM, I see:

Failed to open a session for the virutal machine
Subversion Server

No error info

Details:
Result Code:
E_FAIL (0x80004005)
Component:
ProgressProxy
Interface:
IProgress {c20238e4-3221-4d3f-8891-81ce92d9f913}

Then if I try to go into "Snapshots" and "Delete Snapshot" I get:

Failed to delete the snapshot Snapshot 1 of the virtual machine Subversion Server.

Parent UUID {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000} of the medium

does not match UUID {f7db-4bde-a65c-437e-8687-0b7aaeafd328}
of its parent medium stored in the media registry ('C:\Users\Seajay/.VirtualBox\VirtualBox.xml').

So I seem to be stuck now without being able to start the VM, or delete the snapshot.

* Bump *

Anyone any pointers here... still stuck with an dead virtual machine, which I can't even seem to do anything with...

Tried this many times, and there is not much you can do because of the UUID blocking.

To get the vm up and and running, I create a new one reusing the main vdi file, and then remove the old vm but keeping the files, and manual delete afterwards.

As it is now, you can easily loose a snapshot setting without much to do for recovering the changes.

OK thanks - I will give that a try.
