How to use the "new file manager" ?

Post by Technologov »

From v6.0-BETA2 changelog "User interface: a new file manager enabling user to control the guest file system and copy file objects between host and guest."

How to use it ?

GUI: "new file manager" is hard to find

Post by Technologov »

Host: VBox 6.0.0-BETA2 + Win7 x64.

At first I was unable to find it as it's digged very deep in the menu of the running VM. Difficult to find it in GUI.
I suggest to *also* offer it in VBox Manager (Control Center) via Right Click on VM menu.

The file manager will become one of the "machine tools" like logviewer in the future. this may not happen before 6.0 though.
