I botched a transfer of a VM from one harddisk to the other. Now I'm left with the base vdi and a whole bunch of snapshots.

My steps

• Copied old VM directory over to new HDD
• Deleted old VM and added new VM using using Machine->add and providing the old XML file

• Couldn't add base vdi file due to conflict so changed the UUID of base vdi with

  VBOXMANGE.EXE internalcommands sethduuid  <path/to/vdi>
  

• Attempt to rollback to a snapshot, but it seems the VM is looking for the snapshots on the old HDD (which is formatted and gone)

This is the error (networked is the name):

Failed to restore the snapshot networked of the virtual machine lfs.

Could not open the medium 'H:\vm\ft.vdi'.

VD: error VERR_PATH_NOT_FOUND opening image file 'H:\vm\ft.vdi' (VERR_PATH_NOT_FOUND).

Result Code: E_FAIL (0x80004005)
Component: Medium
Interface: IMedium {53f9cc0c-e0fd-40a5-a404-a7a5272082cd}

The old HDD was drive H: the new one is drive N:

How can I modify the snapshots/VM to look in N:\vm\ft.vdi for the base vdi? I've already set the default settings in VirtualBox in general (default vm/vm snapshot location).

Or if not that how can I merge the old snap shot with the base vdi given that the only things that have changed is the base vdi's UUID?
