To exit scaled mode in VirtualBox, simply press the Host key + C again.
Here's a breakdown and some additional information:
Exiting Scaled Mode
- Keyboard Shortcut: The easiest way to toggle in and out of scaled mode is by pressing the designated Host key (usually Right Ctrl) and the C key simultaneously. So, to leave scaled mode, just repeat that same key combination.
Alternatives
While the keyboard shortcut is the quickest method, you can also use the VirtualBox menu:
- Access the View Menu: Within the Virtual Machine window, locate the "View" menu at the top.
- Select Scaled Mode: If you are currently in scaled mode, the "Scaled Mode" option in the "View" menu will be checked. Clicking it will uncheck it and return you to normal (non-scaled) mode.
Summary
To reiterate:
