Listing file share drive root contents hangs Windows VMs

[ssawgift]

What happens if you don't go through the mapped network drive (E:\), but you browse through normal, unmapped drives, like Network, VBoxShare? Does it still hang?

Yes, I can browse via \\vboxsrv\Downloads.

Okay, I want to correct one part of my initial post. Actually, Windows 7 guest does not suffer from this problem.

Should I file a bug ticket to Oracle?

I don't know that it's a bug because mine doesn't do that.

Did you manually mount the share or are you using auto-mount? Because mine which is auto-mounted is backwards from yours.

I still have this problem after updating to 4.3.22.
