Hello to all,
You can hide the virtual box window and leave it on the Windows taskbar only the window of the virtualized system?
Thanks in advance

Re: Hiding the VirtualBox window
Of course. That is a standard Windows feature, nothing to do with VirtualBox.

but it is more likely that you did not understand my request.
I'm 20 years who use Windows and I have never discovered this feature
Hope I'm wrong ...
Could you explain, however, how?
I want to make sure that VirtualBox (the window containing the list of VMs) can be inserted in the "Windows tray clock") and keep in "view" in the taskbar of Windows VM window containing only the system virtualized OS that I'm using ...

There is VboxHeadlessTray but I am not sure it actually runs GUI client.
Else, the feature doesn't exist in Virtualbox, but some 3rd parties software provide it for any application.

Re: Hiding the VirtualBox window
Moving to "Windows Hosts".
If "virtual box window" refers to the VirtualBox manager window, then it doesn't need to be open at all after the VM is launched - you can close it, no need to minimize it.
In fact it doesn't need to be open before the launch either, since you can launch VMs using a shortcut.
