Hi,
Since last update from microsoft my shared folder aren't mounting in my guest OS.
Facts:
Virtual BOX Version 5.2.0 r118431 (Qt5.6.3)
HOST OS: macOS High Sierra 10.13 (17A405)
GUEST OS: Windows 10 Enterprise 64-bit, Version 1709, SO compilation 16299.19 with Guest additions 5.2.0r118431
Problem:
Updated my guest os system and since then my shared folders don't mount anymore.
Additional info:
It was working before the guest os update, so i'm suspecting this is a windows issue. I've already removed the shared folder, restart, added shared folder again and started the VM but the problem still there.
The \\vboxsrv\<share name> does not appear when browsing the windows network.
Any help solving this problem will be appreciated.
Thks.

Re: Shared folders not mounting
Reinstall the Guest Additions. You have to do that in every major Win10 upgrade/re-installation of Win10.
