Unable to install guest additions 4.2.10

Post by lexxx »

Today i updated virtualbox to version 4.2.10 from 4.2.4.
When i tried to update guest additions on a windows 8 guest vm by mounting additions image to vm virtual cdrom, the disk was not recognized.
Other iso images is successfuly recognized.
I tried to mount additions iso file on host (windows 7) with daemon tools and there was the same problem.

I think that additions iso is corrupted and should be fixed.
Does anyone has the same problem?

I had the same issues. Couldn't mount the iso even with the given "solutions".

I just went back to 4.2.8 which was working fine for me, I will wait for the next release...
