How to convert physical machine into virtual machine for VirtualBox? And how to do it in reverse, from VM to Physical?

Solved by Kedohawyr,
You can convert a machine to VirtualBox with Macrium .
Use Macrium Reflect to create a backup of the system you want to make into a VM. This will give you an .mrimg file.
Make sure VirtualBox or Hyper-V Manager is installed (not both!)
Open Macrium ViBoot, click New and follow the wizard to select your image file as the basis for a new VirtualBox or Hyper-V virtual machine.
Once the VM is created you may need to do some additional tweaks to its configuration (adding additional virtual hardware). Also keep in mind how this might affect your Windows activation - the VM will be seen as a new computer.
