Genymotion Device image virtual devices are rooted and cannot be unrooted.
Genymotion Desktop has been designed to run in a physical environment, not in a virtual machine. For this reason, Genymotion Desktop will not work if run in a Windows VM, a Windows server nor a Windows Cloud instance.
Genymotion operation relies on the use of Oracle VM VirtualBox in the background. This enables virtualizing Android operating systems. Your question seems to end in a cirle: Genymotion is a virtualBox based Android Emulator. So the answer basically ends up in: because Genymotion decided on that.
This seems like a strange question to ask, so maybe it is a bug, (and I have no problem starting these virtual devices), but then I notice for each new start of an Android project in Eclipse, I have to recreate these Genymotion VDs. So I end up having duplicates in my Device Manager. I go to try to delete them in the VD Manager and it says, "stop the device before deleting it".. which is weird because there is no stop button. And nothing in settings. Anyone know how to stop it? Thanks.
