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! VBoxVmService requires Microsoft's Visual C++ Runtime 2005 and the Dotnet Framework 2.
Features:
- Windows 7 support was added.
- Buggy code for Runserv / Runasv has been removed.
- Documentation was reworked.
- Config file VBoxVmService.ini was slimmed by 3 parameters.
- Support for VBOX_USER_HOME was added.
- No more hardlinking during installation.
