What should you do when you want to update your VirtualBox to the latest version, but your older version is configured and fine-tuned? The good news is that your configuration is preserved when you update VirtualBox. New features are usually added with major version releases (for example, v.6.0.0 comparing to version 5.x.x). The advantages to using the latest VirtualBox version are that it includes improvements, bug fixes and allows you to work with a higher security level as well as receiving a higher degree of performance.

I had been using snapshots and linked clones for a couple of years (on a 2TB drive) and had lots of old unused images who's state was not obvious. I had the opposite problem of having lots of old VDI images that were no longer registered in virtualbox that I wanted to delete from my host.
