VirtualBox 5.0.17 Drag & Drop

Post by Simple07 »

VirtualBox 5.0.17-105971 and 106005 seem to have lost the Drag & Drop ability between Client (Win XP x86 SP3) and Host (Windows 10 x64 OS Build 10586.164).. Both the Extension_Pack and Guest Additions were reinstalled to no avail.

Re-installing 5.0.16-105871 back fixes the problem..

Regards, Simple.

The Drag & Drop issue is fixed by installing VBoxGuestAdditions_5.0.17-106155 on VirtualBox-5.0.17-105971 and newer versions.

Thanks for the feedback.

However, between the mentioned revisions there weren't any changes related to Drag & Drop -- so I wonder what it makes it work for you again using VBoxGuestAdditions_5.0.17-106155 on VirtualBox-5.0.17-105971.
