Drag & Drop not working

Post by Sheer-Gold »

Hi,

I have Windows XP SP2 running on a MacBook Air 2014 with Big Sur installed.

I should be able to drag & drop files & folders, from my Mac, and from attached USB drives, into the XP Virtual machine.
But they don’t transfer.

Under Devices, Drag and Drop is ticked, and Bidirectional is also ticked.

Anyone know how I can make drag & drop work.

Guest Additions must be installed in the VM.
