Lost my shared folders

Post by epocket »

I have been using VirtualBox for a long time.
With the latest update I lost my shared folders.

Virtual box creates the folders as usual but they don't show on the Virtual machine any more.

(yes I installed the guest additions :-)

Host mac osx 10.6.5
Virtual: windows 7
Virtual box 3.2.12 r68302

Does anyone know what to do?

Found the solution myself in another place of the forum:
