I have read (and re-read) VirtualBox manual section 4.3. I am able to connect to a USB drive plugged into the host. Setting the mount point to the letter Z did not help. I have tried a number things, including re-installing Guest Additions and verifying the presence of Guest Additions, but the folders do not appear. I just got a Windows 10 VM running but I am unable to see the host folders in Windows Explorer. After declaring them in settings (with the VM off), they just appear.

The log for the VM list both packages.Ġ0:00:08.397977 VMMDev: Guest Additions information report: Interface = 0x00010004 osType = 0x0003B100 (Windows 10, 64-bit)Ġ0:00:01.438842 SUP: Opened VBo圎hciR0.r0 (/usr/lib/virtualbox/ExtensionPacks/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack/linux.amd64/VBo圎hciR0.r0) at 0xXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.Ġ0:00:01.029422 Installed Extension Packs:Ġ0:00:01.029441 Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack (Version: 6.0.24 r139119 VRDE Module: VBoxVRDP)įor several years now, I have had no difficulty accessing the shared folders (drives) on the host in the Windows 7 VM.

I have what I believe to be the correct (and same) versions of the Extension Pack and Guest Additions (VBoxGuestAdditions_6.0.24.iso) installed for VMs running Windows 7 and 10 on the same platform and from the same Oracle VM VirtualBox Manager.
