Cannot Transfer Clipboard Data
I'm running a Windows 10 VM on a Mac Host. The VM seems to function fine. I've run The guest additions software as well. I'm still unable to transfer clipboard data in either direction. I'm fully aware that copy on mac is command C and paste on Windows is Control V. All help appreciated.
Re: Cannot Transfer Clipboard Data
This is probably a daft question, but as you haven't mentioned it, in your VM Settings > General > Advanced, are Shared Clipboard and Drag'n'Drop set to 'Bi-Directional'?

Re: Cannot Transfer Clipboard Data
FWIW, the clipboard only works with plain text and image clippings.
