4.3 issue Install Guest Additions not working on Win7

Post by TheGood1 »

Hi All

Not sure if you guys have faced any such issue , i have installed recent version of Virtual Box on Win7 64 bit.

Followed the guide of Virtual box how to enable Drag & Drop Feature.



Manually installed the Vbox Windows Additions-amd64

Still Drag & Drop Feature is not working , I have setup Bidirectional in settings .

Any suggestions would be appreciative

Drag and drop only works from host to guest, and Linux guest only.

Use Shared Folders to share objects between guest and host.
