I installed version 2.02 today and hoped that shared folders would work more pleasant than in version 2.0. In version 2.0 I got al lot of errors when copying files from host to guest and vice versa. But unfortunately in version 2.02 I can't share folders at all. This is wat happened.
First I got a message in Dutch (U heeft niet de juiste machtingingen) when i pushed on the shortcut in my guest to acces a shared folder. Acces was not possible. So I had to configure my shared folder settings again. However when I try to share my D and E drive (in the settings menu), the following message appears:

I'm using XPSP3 as host and guest. How can I solve this problem?

Problem solved. When selecting a drive as a shared folder in the settings window, Virtual Box doesn't create a backslash.

For example: When I select the E drive as a shared folder, Vrtual Box creates E: instead of E:\ as the shared folder.
