I would like to see an option to disable the VM display preview in the UTM application window to prevent inadvertent leakage of sensitive data. Currently there is an option to prevent screenshots from being saved to disk, but that does not prevent the VM display from being previewed in the primary UTM application window.

I don't understand the concern. If it's not being saved, how is it leaking sensitive data? You can also just look at the open window...

Shoulder surfing - someone passing by when the VM is closed but the main UTM window is open. (since the preview persists even after the VM itself is closed)

I agree, an option to disable the VM screenshot completely would be very helpful. Currently for several VMs I have to close all windows, wait a moment since the preview lags, and then shut the VM down so the preview is "safe."

I have no need for previews in the list; disabling them would speed up several workflows.
