Windows 10 host and Fedora 24 guest. VirtualBox 5.1.4 installed on host and Linux guest additions 5.1.4 r110228 installed on guest. Both machines are updated.

The guest won't boot into seamless mode. The logs show that seamless is "not yet supported". Seamless mode seems to be supported every so often. Any eta on when it'll come back?

Moved to "Linux Guests" since the host OS is irrelevant to the question asked.

You probably need to post a ticket at bugtracker. Not a lot of the power players use seamless and it is a hit or miss target if it will work.

I'm also seeing this behavior but only in Fedora KDE, when using GNOME seamless works fine. I should mention I have the same specs as OP.
