Encrypted machines

Hello,
couple days ago i had to format system disk, i had installed virtual machines and virtualbox on second disk, so i created new windows etc and i installed virtualbox again (i selected old path) and opened all VMD’s everything in here is fine but all my machines were encrypted in virtualbox settings. While i open machine i dont see prompt to type password. I see black screen only. Is there any way to fix it? thanks :slight_smile:

How you get this idea?

Did you open a vdi or vdmk file, it looked weird? You cannot open these files in a text editor. Won’t work but doesn’t mean these are encrypted.

Did you previously enable VirtualBox encryption settings?

This issue seems unspecific to Whonix.

You might need to create a new VM and change its settings to point to the old virtual harddrives. →
