1472562 2020-10-26 10:26:00 I have never been able to get Virtualbox, in Linux (Mint), to support USB, or share a drive partition. Extension tools have been installed.
Vmware does both, but is a pig to install. Does anyone know how to rectify this?

Don't know if this will help re the Shared Folders helpdeskgeek.com

Might need one of the very quiet Linux experts ;)

1472564 2020-10-27 07:14:00 Well, I can't help much really as I haven't used Virtualbox for years. I don't know why some people using Linux keep posting for Linux help on this forum when so few people here use Linux. Isn't it more logical to try the Linux Mint forum or just a general Google search with relevant key words?

There is a complete section of the Mint forum dedicated to Virtualization: forums.linuxmint.com

From there I found a thread that might help: forums.linuxmint.com
