[QUOTE="PGB1, post: 1951769, member: 76746"] In Case This Helps Figure It Out: My OS that I had when I used Virtual Box for Windows & DOS virtual machines gave a similar message when I would click the computer to shut down. Quitting the virtual machine and virtual box before shutting the Mac down stopped it. Note, however, that this was on a much older operating system than yours. (OS X 10.11.6 machine with Windows XP Pro, Windows 98 or MS DOS as the virtual machines.) My wife has a computer using OS X 10.6.x and Virtual Box. She has to also shut the Virtual Box and the Windows down before quitting to avoid the message. Paul PS: For the little it is worth, I very much liked Virtual Box [I]versus[/I] Parallels for its stability and zippiness. (Not to mention the zero cost.) [/QUOTE]
