run shorcut hidden in my ubuntu 16.04

Question

i add to my startup manager of ubuntu 16.04 the following command.

/usr/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBox --comment "WINDOWS 7" --startvm "22591f38-3b08-4240-b2dc-b0f62714ee99"

But the question is can i make something to run the virtual machine with the startup hidden or minimized.

Do you want to keep the VM completely hidden – like a server? In that case, you can use VBoxVmService. — Melebius, May 03 '18 at 17:56

Yes, there's a way, if you want to write a script. See the answer to a similar question on this site for an example from someone more knowledgeable than I:
