I think you should try to check the hdd of the vm.
Then if it does not work anyway, you should plug off/on your virtual machine without saving the session.I have read this on this VM thread that maybe can help you.
This error seems to happen when you have saved sessions and update your vbox software.

Right button on your virtual machine, Discard Saved State should fix the VM with no data loss

Oracle SQL Developer Export Issue: Target not writable

I have SQL Developer on machine. Once while exporting data from database to my local drive, It prompted me to ask whether " you would like to allow the local drive to be writable or not". I accidentally clicked No. From then, I am not able to export any file from database to my local drive. Every time I get an error saying "Save as Target :D is not writable". I couldnt find any solution in the preferences section nor over the internet. I am accessing SQL developer via citrix. I have cleared cache, removed tmp files. Nothing helped. Is anybody facing the same issue? Any idea how to clear defaults? I use Windows 7 environment.
Even I faced this issue and googled but no luck. So, I started trying multiple options. Below one worked (exclude the double quotes as slash is lost while posting this update)

odoo 8 tryinig to print without posbox

I have three Epson TM20II Ethernet printers
trying to print the kitchen orders without the posbox (it's not available in my country)
I've tried the TAKEPOS solution :

and many other stuff but nothing seems to work
does anybody has an idea on how to solve this?
I was thinking about emulating the POSBOX on a PC but again I have no idea how to do this ..
many thanks in advance everybody
Try following:
If you emulate a PC as POSBOX, make sure a printer(EPSON) attached to that
PC is able to take the printouts.
You need to have Odoo running on that PC with the modules of POS
installed in it and creating database in it. It should install
following POS modules in it hw_proxy,hw_escpos,hw_scanner. Refer to
the following link
https://doc.odoo.com/trunk/hw_proxy/#posboxless-setup-guide
Check the IP address of that PC and configure it under the kitchen
printers section where your original-(main) odoo system is up and running.
Note: Just a thought, setup of a this kind is not cost effective, if there are more than one kitchen/bar printers is to be setup, as you need to replace a POSBOX with PC at every place.

Partitioning a USB drive

I have a usb drive formatted in NTFS and was wondering if there was a way to partition it, I have looked in disk management and I am unable to partition it that way, is there any other way of partitioning?
I believe that it is impossible to partition my usb drive, possibly because it is too small (1gb) or any other reasons but thank you for the help.
I have got it so I have two partitions, but I cannot label one of them
I am trying to partiotion the s: drive
You can run DISKPART in an Administrator's Command Prompt, then use the LIST, SELECT and DELETE, followed by CREATE commands.
To get an Administrator Command Prompt, click
Start
All Programs
Accessories
Right-click Command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.
!!! WARNING - YOU WILL LOSE ALL DATA ON YOUR USB DRIVE !!!
I have managed to do what I wanted to do through virtual hard disks
Virtual hard disks can be created through the disk management under actions
I would also like to thank howtogeek for providing the knowledge to create a bat file to make attaching virtual disks easier
The howtogeek bat file help can be found here http://www.howtogeek.com/51174/mount-and-unmount-a-vhd-file-in-windows-explorer-via-a-right-click/
Thank you everyone for the help

Sandbox within vmware workstation, is it possible?

What I want to be able to do is that, run a vmware machine on workstation, windows xp or 7 for instance. But all the changes I make while I am running the machine e.g. create a file, install something etc, I don't want them to be written to the system/image. Instead it should act like even the image itself is sandboxed, and when I shut down the machine, the image stays the same.
Now, I know about the snapshots functionality, but I basically want to save the time that is expended while reverting an image, on every power down session. Instead it should be such that the changes aren't written to the image/system in the first place (and instead are done in something like memory or a temporary location etc), and thus there is no need to revert when the system is powered off.
Now, is this possible to achieve with just vmware workstation itself? if not than is it possible with some third party tool or something of the sort? if yes then specifically which tool? or if this is possible utilizing any other concepts, say ramdisks etc or anything at all really?
Any help at all is really appreciated!
If I understand your you correctly, defining the VM's disks as nonpersistant should help.
