In the Mount point field, enter either a letter if you’re using a Windows client or a folder name if you’re using a Linux client, under which the OS will try to mount your folder. Enable Auto-mount if it’s not active so that you won’t have to mount the folder manually each time in the client OS.ħ. Make sure Read-only is disabled if you want both host and client to have read and write access to its contents.Ħ.
Choose the path of the actual folder that will be shared in Folder Path.ĥ. Click on the icon with the Plus sign to add a new shared folder.ģ. To use shared folders in VirtualBox clients, open your VM’s settings:Ģ. You can copy and move files to and from it, then detach it from the VM to access its contents on the host PC. Method 2: Burn to an ISO (Thanks to u/CaponeFroyo for this method) Another way of transferring files to a VM is through a virtual ISO. Inside your virtual machine you should be able to access the drive and copy files from/to it.
Once it's ready, plug in your flash drive again. Transfer files from a windows that is running virtual box to a linux machine elsewhere The general techniques will include scp/rsync from one (virtual) machine to the other (virtual) machine. While the VM is active, find your flash drive in “Devices -> USB.” Choose it for it to detach from your host PC and attach to the guest OS.ĥ. Start your virtual machine and wait for it to boot up.
