When the guest machine, running Windows 10, upgrades the May 2019 feature update, AKA 1903, the shared folders function stops working. Even if I delete the shared folder and then add it again, the guest machine does not recognize it.
Tested on Linux Mint 19.1 host, running VB 6.0.6

Did you re-install the Guest Additions (GAs)? A major Win update requires that I'm afraid...Shmu26 wrote:Even if I delete the shared folder and then add it again, the guest machine does not recognize it
Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.

If you obfuscate any information requested, I will obfuscate my response. These are virtual UUIDs, not real ones.

I also experienced this problem.
Uninstalling GA 6.08 and re-installing it solved the issue.
Many thanks
