Hi Brian, Are you administrator in the VM? Did you do an update of old Guest Additions? Also please provide us the following information:
- Please post us the file versions of "VBoxSF.sys" (in windows\system32\drivers) and "VBoxMRXNP.dll" (in Windows\system32). - Make sure that there is a service called "VBoxService" in the services list. - Open the registry (run "regedit.exe") and go to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services". Which keys beginning with "VBox" are there? -Andreas. Brian J. Murrell wrote: > I have a Windows XP guest which I have set up a "Machine Folders" shared > folder.
