Re: keyboard can't typing in guest system (win 10)
Make sure that the VM is not enabling a USB filter that could grab ownership of the keyboard from the host.
Otherwise, this could be a keyboard layouts problem - a guest OS configuration problem. VirtualBox itself doesn't care about keyboard layouts: it simulates a bunch of switches whose meaning is interpreted by the guest OS.

Re: keyboard can't typing in guest system (win 10)
As far as I know, my previous answer is complete. It's either a USB filter problem (you say not), or the keyboard layout is incorrect. I don't know how to fix an incorrect keyboard layout in Windows 10 if you can't access the control panel. A quick Google tells me that there's a keyboard layout link on the welcome screen. You need to select a Mac layout for your language.
