  <title>Decrypting Encrypted VMs</title>
  
  <body>
    <p>In some circumstances it might be required to decrypt previously encrypted VMs. This can be done using <userinput>VBoxManage</userinput> with the following command: </p>
    <pre xml:space="preserve">VBoxManage encryptvm <varname>uuid</varname>|<varname>vmname</varname> setencryption --old-password <varname>file</varname>|-</pre>
    <p>The only required parameter is the password the VM was encrypted with. The options are the same as for encrypting
      VMs. </p>
