There may indeed be some parallel universe in which dd is preferable to Acronis, but it isn't the universe I inhabit! mpack Site Moderator Posts: 37170 Joined: 4. A dd image of the same drive would have taken considerably longer, and would have been 230GB. That time is very good, and the file size is manageable. is 19GB, and took about 15 minutes to create. For example the last Acronis backup I took of the C: drive on the PC I'm using right now. The dd suggestion btw involves an image file equal in size to the disk being copied - which is far inferior to the Acronis method, which only copies used clusters, and it compresses them to save time and space. Better in that case to call it "output.raw". If the Autostart feature has been turned off, choose VBoxWindowsAdditions.exe from the CD/DVD drive inside the guest to start the installer.
That is a bad habit to get into when the file is not actually an ISO container. Unless you have the Autostart feature disabled in your Windows guest, Windows will now autostart the Oracle VM VirtualBox Guest Additions installation program from the Additions ISO. Plus, I note you are still giving your "output.iso" file a ".iso" extension in your example. I already mentioned another working method - Acronis TrueImage - which I believe will suit the OP better.
