![]() Oracle VirtualBox requires only to release the mouse (or sometimes it doesn't seem to require anything, I can switch between Windows XP and the host operating system just by moving the mouse, the same as I could with XP Mode in Windows 7). ![]() There is an option to change these keystrokes, but only to other collections of three keys. Hyper V captures the mouse and requires constant clicking on to release it. What I mean by "side by side working more intuitive in VirtualBox" is this: Once booted in VirtualBox, it did require a repeat of the telephone activation done last night in HyperV (it complained "you system has changed substantially since you activated it"), but I was able to do this by telephone as before. I was able to use the same VHD (created as per instructions in post 1 of this thread) into Oracle Virtualbox. ![]() Although this is described as more basic, it seems to handle working in Windows XP and Windows 10 side-by-side in a much intuitive way. Oracle Virtualbox didn't seem to capture the mouse, it worked better side-by-side with Windows 10 (more like Windows XP Mode + Windows 7 did). Is there any way to stop this?īefore finding this page I originally tried a fresh download of XP Mode to Oracle Virtualbox (before realising it might stop working after 30 days, which is no use to me). I don't like the way Windows XP captures the mouse (I need to work side by side in Windows XP and Windows 10 every day). ![]() I made the Windows XP desktop larger by changing the screen resolution.
