Solution for modifying UUID in vboxmanage

My environment:

Virtualbox 4.3.10 r93012

Operating System: win7

 

Problem: a uuid conflict is prompted when virtualbox uses the copied Virtual Disk:

Because a hard disk with UUID ''already exists.

 

 

According to the Internet, run vboxmanage to modify the uuid and report the following error:

D: \ Program Files \ oracle \ virtualbox> vboxmanage internalcommands sethduuid D: \ VM \

Rac1 \ model. VDI

Vboxmanage.exe: Error: failed to create the virtualbox object!

Vboxmanage.exe: Error: Code e_invalidarg (0x80070057)-one or more arguments ar

E invalid (Extended info not available)

Vboxmanage.exe: Error: most likely, the virtualbox COM server is not running or

Failed to start.

 

 

Solution:

Modify vboxmanage to run this program in compatible mode, for example:

Run the following command again:

D: \ Program Files \ oracle \ virtualbox> vboxmanage internalcommands sethduuid D: \ VM \

Rac1 \ model. VDI

UUID changed to: f52953fb-b3d1-400c-b345-dc4de6acaf75
