if you snapshotted it you can revert to that, or, you could set the disks to be "non persistant" which means when you switch it off everything is auto forgotten. However, if neither of those were true you cant go back in time.

when i choose nonpresident it works perfectly.

is there any way to ask me if it will undo the changes when i shutdown or not?

where are these changes saved?

You should see some redo files - if you look under the options for your vm under "Snapshot/replay" if you have v6, I think its just snapshot if its pre-6, theres "When powering off" .. it will ask you, if you want to revert or keep, if you do non-persistant however, it is just that, totally non-persistant.
