Dude I've been trying to figure this out for WIN 10 for about a week solid and your video just answered all my questions. Thank you thank you thank you. Cheers brother
I'm experimenting with VM for the first time and your tutorials are FANTASTIC! I'm using an old XP install, so it took me a little time to remember where My Network was on this extinct OS. Thank You Much Miguel!
+Kerbal Pictures open start, control panel and to the left click network places and within the submenus you should see it. I pinned mine to my desktop. I'm not in front of my PC now so take the above info with a grain of salt.
Drove myself crazy because the virtual box guest thing would not work. You can browse to the virtual box cd and install the app.exe that way,and all works great. Thanks for the vid,it helped
Hey thank you, you help me a lot! I saw many forums with people saying crazy things, but you made it so easy and understandable that even someone like me who don`t know nothing was able to do...
WORKS GREATLY ON ME GUYS U SHOULD TRY THIS FOR SURE IF U GOT PROBLEM, (typing with caps to cuase i find this solve after 4-5 hours on search) horayyy!!!
Hi, Thanks for a very informative instruction. I have managed to follow this right up until accessing my shared folder on the VM. My VM is running XP, yours - I think is running Windows 7. Please how do I access the shared folder on the VM in XP? Thanks in advance
Thanks man. Help a lot. Can you do step by step how to remapping the network in virtual machine into different shared folder in host machine without create a new one?
this is late but whatever hahaha.. u click on my network places .. if it doesnt show up u'll click next on add a network place in the network tasks bar in the left u do next then u choose the location by browsing in Entire network ( Virtual box shared folders) the name will be vboxsvr.
@@byuul6454 Wow! THANKS LOADS. Not to late for Me. :-) Be sure you put something in Host Folder so you have something to see. (silly Me). I kept seeing blank.
If you can't find the Devices Menu, exit the scalated mode Clicking Hostkey (Right Control) + C and you'll find the devices menu. If the Additions CD dont pop-up after you click on it, just manualy open it in the Windows Explorer. That solved my problems. Thanks a lot!
jokamutta I managed to solve the issue a while ago but I cannot remember what I done. On virtualbox, right click your virtual machine, go to network settings, and change it to internal network. I think that's what done, not 100% sure.
Finally a good tutorial about that!!! I have newer version of VM and I had to install guest additions manually from the CD drive (after clicking "Devices/Install Guest Additions I had to open CD drive to install the iso file). Can I share any program from Windows to VM????
So initially when you try to load tools from the disc image nothing happens...but actually if you open up 'my computer' it's ready to be executed from the virtual disk drive.
jokamutta I shared a compressed folder, but I was not able to see on the virtual Windows. Then I casually clicked on 'Show all program' then I was able to see.

+wyzemann where was it located again? I am in the same position you were and I forgot so can you help me find the network folder?

That solved my problems.

Anderson Silva thank you
Done everything in this video but the program inside the shared folder will not work, just says the path does not exist
Grant Kidd Yea! Mine says The folder is empty even tho I shared it!
jokamutta I managed to solve the issue a while ago but I cannot remember what I done. On virtualbox, right click your virtual machine, go to network settings, and change it to internal network. I think that's what done, not 100% sure.
Grant Kidd When I do that I lose internet connection in Virtualbox. I have it on NAT
This is working.. THANKS
Thanks for all the detail! You're a life saver!

I was having some difficulty
Thanks for the video. I wonder, whether we simply can drag and drop the files or not?
keep in mind guys that you have to make a path to the folder from NETWORK->user->etc and NOT from the DESTKOP otherwise won't work
