I got sick of seeing the GenyMotion launcher, so I looked for a way to start the device without actually having to click extra things.
If you know what your virtual machine "name" is, you can skip this step.
- Go to the folder that VirtualBox is installed in command prompt and type:
VBoxManage list vms
- That'll give you the list of virtual machines and their names. Copy the one you want to quick-start.
Now to create the one-click starter.
- Create a shortcut to Genymotion's "player.exe" file.
- Edit the shortcut and add in the --vm-name argument:
"C:\Program Files\Genymotion\player.exe" --vm-name "Google Nexus 7 2013 - 4.4.2 - API 19 - 1200x1920"
Where "Google Nexus 7 2013 - 4.4.2 - API 19 - 1200x1920" is the name of my virtual machine.
That's all you need to do.
Now your dev-build apps can crash even sooner!
