Command line arguments - 86Box/86BoxManager GitHub Wiki

Version 1.1.0 introduced support for command line arguments. You can use them by opening Command prompt (cmd.exe) and navigating to the folder where you keep 86Manager.exe, then typing 86Manager <arguments>.

The following arguments are supported at this time:

• -S <VM name>: starts the virtual machine specified once the Manager loads. You must put the name into quotation marks (") to ensure it is treated as a single argument in case there are any spaces in it. Example: 86Manager -S "Test VM" will start the VM named "Test VM". If the specified VM cannot be found, an error will be displayed.
