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.

The log for the Windows 10 VM list both packages. 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 two VMs, one running Windows 7 and the other Windows 10, on a Linux host, both VMs sharing the same Oracle VM VirtualBox Manager.
