How to move a VM to another computer

Post by Pipppero2007 »

Hi all,

I read many guides but I still cannot understand how I can move a VM (including its snapshots) to another Computer.

"Import/Export appliance"=forget the snapshots and even change the extension of the files

Thank you

I am using Windows 8 and I don't need to move them from the "default location" but I need to move them with their snapshots to ANOTHER computer.

Thanks

Ooops,

My bad. My clipping index was corrupt. I corrected the link and it points to the same location as mpacks as it should have.
