Hi,
I have tried everything but Drag and Drop does not work. I have made it bidirectional by setting Clipboard and Drag and Drop as bidirectional in Settings > General > Advanced. This applies for all the guest OS i have on my virtual box. There are many updates which have come all this time, but none of them even after re-installation have fixed the issues. I did a work around for windows OS by opening the shared folder and then transferring the files, however for other linux based operating system and a android emulator I am running, this does not work. Guest addition installation has not fixed the issue either.

In the top menu go to Device - Insert Guest Additions CD image. On the Windows VM go to Explorer, then look for the drive that represents the newly 'inserted' CD.

I am stuck - I can't do a fresh reinstallation now as other licensed OS will be gone and will take me a lot of time to get all the VM's up.
Request your help and support on this matter.PS: Drag and Drop does not work even if I share the folder and then try using drag and drop.
