Hey all, I usually don't ask for computer help, but this one has me totally stumped for hours now.
I'm running a Windows 10 host (latest update) on my computer (specs aren't a problem) and Virtual Box running MacOS Sierra 10.12.6 Guest.
It all works well, setup perfectly fine, got settings sorted out, able to download software and install and all that.
But for the life of me, I cannot
A) Share a folder between my Host TO my guest OS and
B) Connect a usb device to the Guest OS.
I have the Guest software installed into MacOS (Darwin to be exact), and VB certainly says that the folder I've specifically made for sharing with IS being shared, BUT it's not showing up in the MacOS.
I understand dualbooting would probably be better, but I have my own reasons for not doing so.
Does anyone know of why I am unable to share folders/devices to the Mac, or rather, why the Mac isn't detecting these folders and devices.
No errors appear when it comes to Sharing folders, but an error DOES show up when it fails to share a USB device.
Like I said, stumped on this, as no other guest OS i've tried has had this issue at all, and unfortunately I need MacOS for my college course, and I refuse to shell out another 1500+ for a computer I'll use far less than my actual gaming laptop.
Thanks in advanced for any replies, as they'd be greatly appreciated.
