    Hi everyone!

    If you run AIDA64 hardware report on VM it leaks bios info showing that this is a VM. Phoenix editor doesn't have these lines in DMI Strings, so I'm kinda stuck. Tried to find these strings via HxD, but no luck with that too.

    Any idea how to edit/remove that? Maybe some VMX commands? I need to cloak the VM to research malware.

    BIOS Properties:
    BIOS Type VMware Virtual
    BIOS Version 6.00
    SMBIOS Version 2.7
    UEFI Boot No
    Secure Boot Not Supported
    System BIOS Date 11/12/20
    Video BIOS Date Unknown

    BIOS Manufacturer:
    Company Name VMware, Inc.

    I already tried all that. No luck, "Vmware virtual" is still there in the motherboard -> bios in aida64 :(
