Help with understanding USB connecting [Resolved]

[Sandersson]

Hi.
I hope for your help.
I am new to the thrilling world of Virtualization, and need some help.
I am running a Linuxversion called Netrunner 15. I is based on Kubuntu.
I have used the Oracle VM VirtualBox to set up a Windows 7 machine.
All fine so far.
I am using VirtualBox 4.3.18.
I now have some file on my Windows that I want to take to a Kingston USB stick. (Alternative to my Netrunner15 host machine).
I therefor have installed something called Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack 4.3.26.
I am now able to choose Settings->USB->enable the USB 2.0 (EHCI).
But still nothing happens in my Windows.
I have tried to add a blank filter, but this do not help.

What do I do from here?

I thank you for your help.

Best regards
Sandersson.

In a host terminal run this:

Code: Select all

sudo usermod -aG vboxusers <your username>

Replace <your username> with the name you use to log in. Type your user password when prompted.


Be sure to log off and back in to finalize the change in permissions
