I don't think you're doing the Guest Additions (GAs) correctly. The correct way is to launch the VM in a normal, windowed mode, then while the VM has the focus, go to the host's menu "Devices" ยป "Insert GAs CD image...". Then go to your guest, and in the virtual CD drive (usually D:\) you should run "VBoxWindowsAdditions.exe". After the installation/reboot, eject the CD from the CD drive (from within your guest).

The image shows.... The mountain Guest. The actual guest in use (5.0.26r), the dinsk mount in D: Disk , the execution VBoxWindowsAdditions.exe

The result is the same of the first post.

You're doing everything absolutely correctly!
Do you have anything "funny" on your guest (or your host), like 3rd party antivirus, protections, web surfing monitors, anything like that? If so, disable them. If they insist, uninstall them. See if that helps...

Hi, Socratis.
I dont have any 3rd pary protection, antivirus, anything. Neither the host or guest. :(

The problem started from the last versions, until 5.0.26 everything worked ok.

Is there something else to try?

I don't recall anything similar, so, short of re-installing your Win7 guest, I can't think of anything easy. Maybe your permissions are out of whack in the guest? We're talking major detective work, so it may be easier to just create a new VM and test it. If it works in the new VM (as it should), then migrate your user data (if any) to the new VM and be happy...
