There are 2 ways to go back to an earlier version. Option 1 requires a Guest OS install and Option 2 does not. <strong>Option 1</strong>. Uninstall 2.1.2 and reinstall 2.0.4. Then reinstall your guest OS from scratch and re-setup VirtualBox. or <strong> Option 2</strong>. Uninstall 2.1.2 and reinstall 2.0.4. Then copy the backed up virtual desktop infrastructure (the 2.0.4 .vdi file) into the freshly installed VirtualBox and resetup. This should only take a few minutes if you have the backed up .vdi file. Hope this helps. @Josh, Since 2.1.2 updated some core files, you cannot simply reinstall 2.0.4.
