How to increase the access speed of an XP client to shared folders of the host? I have an XP client and a WIN7 client running in Virtualbox. The access times from a WIN7 client to the shared folders of the host are much better than the access times from the XP client.
The access time from the XP client to its own VMS is very good. Only the access to the shared folders is slow.
It is probably due to the settings in the XP client. The settings in Virtualbox are comparable from my point of view.
Does anyone have a tip on this? Thank you very much.
Chris
