I installed Boinc 7.4.36 under Win8.1 with install option “Protected application execution” . Then I installed the VM 4.3.12. When I run WU with VM (Atlas or VirtualLHC) I don´t see any VM within the Virtual Box Manager.
May it´s not possible, because the tasks run under the account “boinc_project”?

I installed Boinc 7.4.36 under Win8.1 with install option “Protected application execution”.

Under BOINC 7.4.36 this is called Service Install.

Then I installed the VM 4.3.12. When I run WU with VM (Atlas or VirtualLHC) I don´t see any VM within the Virtual Box Manager.

Project questions are best asked at the project. It's their VM, applications and tasks that run in the virtual machine. As far as the FAQ at vLHC goes, the present BOINC (since 7.2.10) can be installed as a service for the VMs to work.

According to someone answering at Atlas@Home it's normal not to see running tasks in the VM when BOINC is installed as a service. You can check in the VirtualBox manager to see if the VMs are running. And for the rest, best ask at those projects.
