Shared clipboard isn't working with Android x86 9.0 RC2

Post by Mr. Brooks »

Hi,

i have installed Android x86 9.0 RC2 on my Ubuntu Host with Virtualbox 6.1.16. I can't use the shared clipboard feature and it seams clipboard at all isn't working for Android. There is not Guest additions for Android Guest. Is this feature supported?

Shared clipboard requires Guest Additions.

Android is not a supported guest OS, i.e. there are no Guest Additions for Android.

Look up Guest Additions in the user manual, chapter 4. That will tell you what guests are supported, and also what features you lose if you can't install the GAs.
