How To Get Full Screen on VirtualBox | VirtualBox Screen Resolution

Ғылым және технология

In this video, I will show you how to take the default screen setup for VirtualBox and modify the settings so you can have fullscreen mode. In this example, we are using macOS High Sierra, but this can be applied to any of the macOS operating systems.
If you have questions, please put them in the comments below, or to find solutions to any issues related to VirtualBox, you check our forum for many other related subjects. The site is forum.geekrar.com,
Video Notes:
In this example, I used High Sierra, but you should change VBoxNAME to the name you have given your virtual machine.
Commands to be used for Virtualbox 6
cd "C:\Program Files\Oracle\Virtualbox"
VBoxManage setextradata "VBoxNAME" BoxInternal2/EfiGraphicsResolution "x"

    I launched the browser but it doesn't fill the screen. I tried other applications and the same result. Is it guest additions issue? Thanks.

    It didn't work, when I ran the command prompt as a admin I entered the first command then I entered this : VBoxManage setextradata "High Sierra" VBoxInternal2/EfiGraphicsResolution 1980x1080 for the second command. Did I do anything wrong?

    You probably know the answer by now but just in case.. On the virtual box, I have windows running. On the top left corner, there's a tab called "Devices" And then, there should be a screwdriver like icon and next to it it says "Insert Guest Additions CD image. What this does is it's like putting a CD on your virtual box. Once that's done, go to your My PC or an equivalent to that and then click the Virtual Box additions Once you've done that, click the "VBoxWindowsAdditions" There are two of them, 64 is for the 64 bit, 86 is for the 32 bit. Download that and once it's done installing. Reboot your virtual PC and it'll run smooth as your physical computer specs. Not entirely but you know what I mean

    Thank You!! So glad I read the comments, This way works!! Replace the "7" with "HighSierra".. Looks 1000x better than Stretch did before! Correct Code: VBoxManage setextradata "HighSierra" VBoxInternal2/EfiGraphicsResolution "1920x1080" Replace HighSierra with the name of your Virtual Machine.
