Virtualbox Window Sizing problem

Hey ,
So I do not know if this is an problem for me or I do not know the settings correctly . So when I open the VM (Oracle VB ) and when I try to expand the window , the exterior frame expands but the actual screen size remains the same as shown

Hi :slight_smile: not sure how it works on virtualbox, on vmware we have vmware-tools and on kvm we have qemu-guest-agent. Probably VirtualBox Guest Addons can help with that.

I hope someone that do have experience with VirtualBox to respond to this post for completion :slight_smile:

If you haven't tried this already, you may also need to change the Display resolution in Control Center > Displays in UM.

Virtualbox guest additions should fix this, while your machine is running, in virtualbox menu click devices -> insert guest additions cd image, it should download .iso, then open autorun in your vm. And you probably will need to install some packages in your vm as well - #apt install gcc make perl IIRC.
