Hello,
In order to do ugrade VirtualBox, I have choice between the VBoxGuestAdditions_5.2.10.iso and VBoxGuestAdditions_5.2.10-122088.iso.
What is the difference between these two files?
What choice do?
An idea?

You do NOT download the Guest Additions (GAs) separately. The GAs come bundled with your VirtualBox version, and the way to install them is to go to the menu "Devices" » "Insert GAs CD Image...".
Never manually!!!

Bonjour Dear Socratis,
I am updating the Virtualbox from 5.2.10 to 5.2.18. I downloaded VirtualBox 5.2.18 Win and Oracle VM Virtual Extension Pack.
That looks ok. Nevertheless, they are something that I don't understand. You wrote:
Let me know where and How I can downloaded this Guest Additions associated to the 5.2.18 VB.

With the VM running, and the VM window having the focus, you should have a Devices menu on its host window. Under "Devices" » "Insert Guest Additions CD Image...", that's what will insert the GAs CD in your guest.

Thank you Socratis for your help.
I found out where the Guest Additions are. Good.
On the menu of the Guest window, the menu must be visible. (It was not my case. ) As well explained Socratis, in the drop-down menu, click on "Insert Guest Additions CD Image...
