In older version, to change uuid, I've used "VBoxManage internalcommands sethduuid".

On 4.3.8 version, it's doesn't work.

How to change uuid value on 4.3.8 ? Is it possible using vboxmanage ?

Thanks for all.

Best regards.

I'm very sorry.

If i use Ms-Dos and:

C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox>VBoxManage internalcommands sethduuid "C:\xp.vdi"
UUID changed to: 2da8083

all is working fine.

The problem is when I use a ".bat". This ".bat "make the same think, was working in release 4.1, but doesn't wok now.

After having searched, I've found that
---------------------
@echo off
c:
cd \
cd "program files"\oracle\virtualbox
VBoxManage internalcommands sethduuid "C:\XP.vdi"
---------------------

is now working fine.

Thanks for all.

Best regards.
