Igrnore all changes on shutdown?

[supercrazymark]

Hello,

Is it possible to make it so when someone closes down the VM, if they (or another user) opens it then any changes the user has made are lost?

I want to basically open up a "clean" image everytime and any changes made since opening the image are lost on close/shutdown.

I have excluded the "state" switches with:

Code: Select all

VBoxManage setextradata global GUI/RestrictedCloseActions SaveState,Restore

but if I, for example, open a VM and put a shortcut on the desktop and then close/shutdown the VM that shortcut is still there when it's re-opened again.

Is this possible?

Yes it is possible, you need to change the VM disks to "Immutable".
Each time you poweroff/poweron, they are reset.
