Vmdetect
Revision as of 18:16, 15 August 2021 by Administrator (talk | contribs)
VMDetect is part of the initial F1 startup process and is responsible for detecting if the CoreGUI Instance is running under a Hypervisor or is a Virtual Machine.
VMDetect cannot be launched manually, however the dialog box can be made present again if disabled and running under a virtual machine.
- By modifying the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\CoreGUI\inf, setting disVM to 0 (Enterprise Versions only)
- By deleting the file C:\CGUI\disVM.cgui
Trivia
- VMDetect is one of few dialog boxes to use F1's appopacit
- VMDetect shows as "VM Detect x86"
- VMDetect has the error icon (noentry) as it's dock icon
- VMDetect has the warning icon as it's windows taskbar icon
- VMDetect uses the networkconnected resource
- A deprecated function called vmdetect-gui was originally introduced to detect hypervisors but was never implemented into F1
- VMDetect's file name is actually called vboxwarning
