Earlier today I made some changes to some dirs/files in a shared folder; I was using programs on the host to make the changes. When I switched into the guest, the changed directories gave read errors when trying to do a simple directory listing. On the host (actually inside a cygwin terminal; thus the *nix-y appearance even though it's an XP host), I can access the subdir with no trouble:
Code: Select all
% cd .svn/pristine
% ls -g

Is there a way of prodding the VM to resync or refresh or re-whatever its shared folder data, without restarting the guest?
