There is always time to install it in my real computer, if after trying it, I decide I want to use it on a regular basis. When I run across a Linux distribution that I want to try like Antergos, Nutyx, etc, I find it way quicker and more comfortable to just install it in a VM than creating a new partition in my real computer. Want to install WordPress in a FreeBSD machine but you are unsure of the steps to follow, and do not want to mess up the real system? Once again, VM to the rescue. For example, if you want to try the swift language used to develop iOS applications in your Linux box, you can simply create a specific VM for that purpose. Notice*: First you must choose the VirtualBox guest OS window, then un-capture keyboard and mouse by pressing "Right Ctrl" key once and use your shortcuts keys to capture.Virtual machines came in handy when we need to create a testing machine for a specific project, or when we want to experiment with new development environments. When this done, you can use your shortcuts keys " PrintScreen" to capture the entire screen or press " Alt + PrintScreen" simultaneously to capture the active* VirtualBox guest OS window. So we need to un-capture keyboard and mouse by pressing Right Ctrl key once, and the " green down arrow" becomes as " black down arrow".Ģ. When this happens you can see a "green down arrow" at the right bottom of your guest’s OS window, that indicates your keyboard and mouse has captured by guest OS.ġ.
Then I notice that when I try to choose the guest OS, my keyboard and mouse automatically captured by the guest OS. If you have perform installations of other operating systems, using Sun VM Virtualbox and you want to capture the screen of your guest operating system and using "PrintScreen" or "Alt + PrintScreen" does nothing, use the solution below to solve this problem.įor this article I have setup a Vbox Environment (Version 4.1.20) in my Windows 7 host operating system to install Windows XP as the guest operating system and I had also installed the "Guest Additions".
