In the Windows 7 guest, the shares are accessed via \\Vboxsvr and appear in the directory listing as network drives,"e.g., "D (\\VBoxSvr) (Z: )." The guest additions package was also downloaded from virtual box - /virtualbox/6.0.24/VBoxGuestAdditions_6.0.24.iso.īoth VMs show the two packages as installed. The extension pack was downloaded from - Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack Version: 6.0.24 r139119. I installed VirtualBox from YaST the installed version is 6.0.24-lp151.2.18.1. Ordinarily, after defining the Shared Folders on the HostOS, you would access the Shared Folder as a Network location (although technically access is not done by using an external network socket). You should also describe how you're accessing Shared Folders in a Windows Guest. although not often it makes a difference, you should always describe whether the Guest Additions were installed from openSUSE packages or from a Guest Additions ISO mounted on a VirtualCDROM. This is also why you have to describe how Guest Additions are installed in openSUSE Guests. Besides downloading Virtualbox from the Oracle website, openSUSE provides its own branded, pre-compiled Virtualbox from openSUSE repositories so that Users don't have to compile it.Īlthough Virtualbox from openSUSE is usually either the same or very nearly the same as the version from Oracle, it's not always so and there can be differences. Whenever posting about Virtualbox in these Forums, the installation source has to be described. Manual Mounting as it applies to Windows, and I have searched on this forum and elsewhere but have not found a solution.Īny suggestions and ideas would be appreciated.
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. 00:00:08.397977 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.
