How to create a shared folder in VirtualBox (Windows host, Ubuntu guest)

How to create a shared folder in Linux guests and fix permissions issues by using the vboxsf group

[@jakescott9214]

my bodhi linux - guest - says "vboxsf does not exist". And it doesn't as I can see by issuing: cat /etc/group

Hello, I've followed your instructions and nothing shows up, and when I go to the terminal and type the command it says "The group does not exist". What am I doing wrong?
