How to increase the video memory to 256 MB in VirtualBox 6


Today we are looking at how to increase a Virtual Machine's video ram in VirtualBox 6 to 256mb of vram.  This is great as the maximum in the settings are 128mb but unfortunately, 256mb is currently the maximum.  This will also work in earlier versions of Virtualbox also.  Enjoy! 

Command Used:
VBoxManage modifyvm "Name of VM" --vram 256
