I just installed a wXP and I need to send so drag out some files to Host pc but this error comes up:

La operación de arrastrar y soltar del invitado al anfitrión falló. 
---- The dragging operation from Guest to host has failed

Drag and drop error from guest (VERR_INVALID_HANDLE).

Código resultado: VBOX_E_IPRT_ERROR (0x80BB0005)           - code result
Componente: GuestWrap                                      - component
Interfaz: IGuest {13a11514-402e-022e-6180-c3944de3f9c8}    - interface

I have Installed the Guest program from de digital disc and I can drag in files from host to guest but not the other way that its what I need and I have set it up on bidirectional. (two ways)
-help very much apreciated ^^

We need to see a complete VBox.log, from a complete VM run, where the problem occurs:

• Start the VM from cold-boot (not from a paused or saved state) / Observe problem / Shutdown the VM (force close it if you have to).
• With the VM completely shut down (not paused or saved), right-click on the VM in the VirtualBox Manager and select "Show Log".
• Save only the first "VBox.log", ZIP it and attach it to your response. See the "Upload attachment" tab below the reply form.

okay, I just edited the post with the zip file

Thank you for that, and thanks for actually trying to DnD a file so that it would show in the log:

00:00:19.151616 VMMDev: Guest Log: DnD: Got 1 file(s), fUnicode=true 
00:00:19.151643 VMMDev: Guest Log: DnD: Adding guest file 'C:\Documents and Settings\usuario\Escritorio\Nuevo Documento de texto.txt'
00:00:19.672592 VMMDev: Guest Log: DnD: Processing message 102 failed with VERR_INVALID_HANDLE

I always disable DnD on all of my guests, mainly because it can be finicky. I try other means of passing data back and forth, such as Shared Folders, or simply network shares. So I never got a chance to see that...

But, I enabled it for my WinXP VM to test it out and I get the same thing. And we're not the only ones. See ticket #18305 Drag and Drop - ErrorCode VBOX_E_IPRT_ERROR. I added the ticket to the "Known Issues" section of the "Discuss the 6.0.0 release" and I added my comments/findings on the ticket as well. I suggest you add a comment to the ticket, which auto-subscribes you so that you can follow the ticket's progress...

Thank you very much for the help, ill keep an eye on that while I try to set up a shared folder.
have a nice day ^^
