+## NAME
+podman\-machine\-set - Sets a virtual machine setting
+
+## SYNOPSIS
+**podman machine set** [*options*] [*name*]
+
+## DESCRIPTION
+
+Sets an updatable virtual machine setting.
+
+Options mirror values passed to `podman machine init`. Only a limited
+subset can be changed after machine initialization.
+
+## OPTIONS
+
+#### **--rootful**=*true|false*
+
+Whether this machine should prefer rootful (`true`) or rootless (`false`)
+container execution. This option will also update the current podman
+remote connection default if it is currently pointing at the specified
+machine name (or `podman-machine-default` if no name is specified).
+
+API forwarding, if available, will follow this setting.
+
+#### **--help**
+
+Print usage statement.
+
+## EXAMPLES
+
+To switch the default VM `podman-machine-default` from rootless to rootful:
+
+```
+$ podman machine set --rootful
+```
+
+or more explicitly:
+
+```
+$ podman machine set --rootful=true
+```
+
+To switch the default VM `podman-machine-default` from rootful to rootless:
+```
+$ podman machine set --rootful=false
+```
+
+To switch the VM `myvm` from rootless to rootful:
+```
+$ podman machine set --rootful myvm
+```
