Hi there, I’ve seen some tutorials online about how to stealth a VM, and while most work, some of them do not, in addition to several other crucial indicators that have been found out by scammers while I was scambaiting them.
Prologue aside, if you could please help me disguise the following things I would be eternally grateful.
1.
When you press ctrl+shift+esc and open Task Manager, go to the performance tab and there’s a clear indicator that the machine is a VM (Screenshot by Lightshot)
2.
After adding the 'MSBios.ReflectHost = TRUE' like to the VM's config, the system manufacturer and model changed, but not the Bios, is there a way to change the bios ver in VMWare Workstation pro 15? (http://prntscr.com/nayoou)
3.
Additionally, whenever I open an application with an extension that was never used by the VM before, there's an option popping up asking if I want to open it with VMWare Tools, how do I get rid of that or at least disguise it? (I do want to keep VMWare Tools). (Don't have a picture)
4.
Again in msinfo32, this time in the system drivers section, there are multiple drivers designated to the VM.
How do I hide those? (http://prntscr.com/nayqet)
Thanks in advance to everyone who answers!
Also, if you have other tips that perhaps I did not mention above please do let me know, it always helps!
Thanks and have a nice day,

One option is to change the permissions on msinfo and dxdiag so they can’t launch, hoping they can just be satisfied with Device Manager, Services and the list of installed programs which are all easily searched and edited in regedit.
Also, check for any utilities set to launch on login.
Something else to consider is the date of install of the operating system and any installed programs.
Can set your host’s clock back to a date appropriate for the hardware when installing Windows.
Also, think about when software would likely have been installed; for example (let’s not all do the same thing) a family member might have been over at Christmas to install Kodi.
