BTW, what's the application and version that you're trying to install?
It's a suite of two programs that work together. One operates a backup/restore function for the Sharp organiser. The other is a PC based phone and address lookup (Daytimer) which syncs up with the Organiser so you can use either as a lookup. The first - Intellisync worked. Daytimer hasnt. It's an old program both on 3.5inch floppies. I've tried copying files from the shared into other folders. Into the root and into a sub folder of the root. Neither worked. Also tried keeping the files in their own folders (DTO 1..DTO 5) and copying them all into the root and into a sub folder of the root. That hasnt worked either. I'm doubtful that expanding the files will work as I never did that with them on my old XP PC and that worked fine. But I'll give it a try tomorrow.

Thanks again. :?

I am running Setup.exe inside the VM.
