Did you move the file recently? If so, make sure you remove it from the Media Manager.TRAyres wrote:Cannot register the hard disk 'X:\Centos64\Centos64.vdi'

Re: VBoxManage error - cannot register hard disk
... and remember to shut VirtualBox down completely for 30 seconds or so after removing the disk, before adding it back.
ps. It is a bad idea to locate a disk outside the VM folder. Relocating the entire VM folder would have been better.
