Description

The open source virtualization software VirtualBox was lacking an option to run virtual machines as a Win NT/XP/2003/W7 service entity. VBoxVmService does the trick!

    Take your VirtualBox VMs to the next level with this great tool. Easy to set up and works exactly as described. This tool adds a vital component to any good virtualisation solution - the ability to run the VM as a proper Windows service, including graceful shutdowns. Handles tricky operating systems like Windows Server 2008 R2 too.
