Machine in data\VirtualBox VMs

My English is not good, so I'm using google translator, I hope you understand my menssagem?

I did some testing here and changed the script Portable VirtualBox.au3 in data\.VirtualBox for data\VirtualBox VMs and recompiled with Autoit-v3
Ex.: script= .VirtualBox replaced by VirtualBox VMs
Important: The data folder is the folder to create data\VirtualBox VMs\Machines

The machine is saved in data\VirtualBox VMs\Machines

-----------------------------------------------
I'm editing here to say that I have tried again and discovered that this method does not work perfectly.
Please Delete this topic.

Change this in line 389 of Portable-VirtualBox.au3 (Starter/Launcher-Version 6.2.3):

FileWrite ($file, StringReplace ($content, $values12[0], @ScriptDir&"\data\.VirtualBox\Machines"))

in this:

FileWrite ($file, StringReplace ($content, $values12[0], @ScriptDir&"\data\.VirtualBox\VirtualBox VMs"))

and then recompile the "Portable-VirtualBox.exe" new.

Take a look here: VirtualBox refuses to save MY virtual machine path
That should do it.
