Hello,

I know that it is easy possible to transfer clipboard content to guest OS, when guest Windows (or VM Tools) are ready booted.

But I want to do the following:

On some machines I have a pre-boot password. Is there any possibility to send the text of the clipboard to the guest VM as keystrokes?

I know, that it is not to advice to copy / paste passwords, but these are test machines and I don't want to enter that long password everytime manually.

So is there a way to send the text of the host clipboard to the guest VM at a point of time where VM Tools are not loaded? Any special key combination?
