If I start a VM using 86BoxManager, it's not possible to take screenshots. There are no new images in the \screenshots folder.
However, starting the same VM (copying the 86box.cfg config file from 86BoxManager), taking screenshots is no problem.

The logfile that 86BoxManager created, sometimes contains just this line (after the initial comment lines):

Illegal instruction 00008B55 (FF)

However I'm not sure if that's realted to the screenshot issue.

Please provide more information, specifically:

  • 86Box build
  • 86Box Manager version
  • Host OS version
  • Config file for the particular VM where the problem happens

I'm also gonna need the type of 86Box build you're using (regular/debug/dev/optimized), as well as VM name and full path.

Sorry, that was apparently my fault, mixing up the 2 "screenshot" folders.
I just noticed, that the screenshots made by 86BoxManager are getting successfully saved in the folder "86box_root\vm-name\screenshots" instead of "86box_root\screenshots".
I simply should have looked into the first folder...
