I have a “real-time” project due tomorrow.



I’ve been working on it all day and night but I clicked something that made the VirtualBox screen turn to black.



I saved the status of the machine and turned it off Now I opened it so I can send the code to myself on anything just to not lose it and its still black.



I believe I know what I clicked. It might have been this downward triangle:



Screenshot of what I believe I clicked.



And then a choice of a circle with two lines… I think?



This is what it looks like now:

How can I undo this?
