Cloning virtual machines

Since version 1.4.0 you can quickly create a duplicate of an existing virtual machine by following this procedure:

1. Right-click on the virtual machine you wish to clone and select "Clone"
This brings up the "Clone a virtual machine" dialog.

2. Set the desired name for the new virtual machine
The Manager will automatically create a folder with this name in your virtual machines folder.

3. Click on the "Clone" button
The Manager will copy over your files and you'll be informed if the operation was successful or not.

And you're done. Keep in mind you may need to update any paths to your disk images inside the config file.

The alternative is to manually move the files to a new virtual machine folder, then add a new virtual machine with the same name.
