Probably going to have to try that post again. Type carefully, please. These:
cd" C: \ Program Files \ Oracle \ VirtualBox "
VBoxManage startvm "TesteBoot" - type headless
are not valid Windows commands as they are typed in your post. The spaces surrounding the \'s in the cd command line aren't supposed to be there, it should be cd "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox". And the Vboxmanage command should be --type headless not - type headless note the double hyphens and no space before 'type'.

If those were the commands you entered, you will have gotten errors, but from the OS, not from Virtualbox.

Try the commands again, and report back what errors you get if you get any. We will need to know the exact text of the error, not just "I got an error". No way to help with that meager information.

If you are starting the guest in VboxVMservice, then VboxVMservice uses a different log-on account than the log-on account you're using and the Virtualbox main window will not be able to work with the guest. If you have the Virtualbox remote desktop server set for the guest you can use Remote Desktop to see the guest screen, that's how I used the guest when I ran VboxVMservice. There's a fix to get the main window to work with such a guest but I don't remember what it is.

Try editing your first post and changing the thread title to "Virtualbox GUI wont work with VboxVMservice guest". Maybe that will get someone who knows the fix.

VboxVMservice is made by a forum user, by the way, not by Oracle, so there's no official support for it. But folks do use it and someone here does know the trick to get the GUI to see the guest.
