portable virtualbox using the latest virtualbox installers

This makes virtualbox works in a portable mode:

  • if you have any installed virtualbox then uninstall it first
  • download https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/7.0.8/VirtualBox-7.0.8-156879-Win.exe or any newer or older version
  • click on Download ZIP above to download the scripts needed
  • create a folder inside your USB/external drive or whatever, name it myVMBOX (ex. F:\myVMBOX if your USB is in F:\).
  • inside F:\myVMBOX put the virtualbox exe we just downloaded (VirtualBox-7.0.8-156879-Win.exe) and rename it to VirtualBox.exe.
  • inside F:\myVMBOX put the following files start_virtualbox.bat and uninstall_virtualbox.bat, you will find them inside the zip you just downloaded.
  • now everytime you want to start virtualbox use start_virtualbox.bat.
