How to detect if my application is running in a virtual machine?

Question

How can I detect (.NET or Win32) if my application is running in a virtual machine?

Answer 1

The easiest way I found to figure out whether my C# app is running on a vmware VM or not is to check the MAC address of the NIC card(s). If it's a VMware VM it would always be: 00:50:56:XX:YY:ZZ

You may enumerate through the NICs as resolved here.
