Drag and Drop - Windows 10 to Manjaro PROBLEM

Post by ZeR0ByTe »

Hi people I have installed VirtualBox in my Manjaro Deepin.
There I have Windows 10 installed.

I want drag and drop files of Windows 10 (VirtualBox) to Manjaro but nothing happen.
But if I do drag and drop of Manjaro to Windows 10, I can.

I have installed VirtualBox Guest Additions and activate bidirectional mode.

Is not possible drag and drop If Windows 10 is “virtualized” to Manjaro Desktop or I need give him any permissions?
Only is possible Host --> Guest??

Thanks for your help.

Look at your "/tmp" directory. If that doesn't work, we need to see a complete VBox.log, from a complete VM run:
  • Start the VM from cold-boot (not from a paused or saved state) / Observe error / Shutdown the VM (force close it if you have to).
  • With the VM completely shut down (not paused or saved), right-click on the VM in the VirtualBox Manager and select "Show Log".
  • Save only the first "VBox.log", ZIP it and attach it to your response. See the "Upload attachment" tab below the reply form.

Hi, socratis, thanks for your reply.
In /tmp I have a folder with the name: "VirtualBox Dropped Files" and have 5 empty folders.
I attach my VBox.log and hope can solve the problem.

Here you have a GIF with the problem:

Please do not wake up a thread less than 24 hours after your last post. A week? Yes. A day? Not really. If people know, and if people feel like it, they'll answer to you. They don't need the extra pressure...

Personally, the oldest threads get priority, so yours just ended up last in the to-do list...
