Description
I don't want the time of the guest OS auto-synced by the Guest Additions, but still wish to use other features of it.
Could this function be made OPTIONAL?

Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
This is possible but needs some manual setup. For Linux guests, edit the file /etc/init.d/vboxadd-service and search the line
To disable the time synchronization, change that line to
Use
to find out other options.
The same for Windows guests: Open regedit and search for VBoxService.exe. Append --disable-timesync to the command line.
