![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Even when it is working, note for Windows Hosts / Guests, dragging and dropping between programs with elevated privileges, and standard user privileges is not supported (i.e. You say that there's mention to Seamless in the log, and that's true, it says there's capability to do that, but is not activated. Drag and drop has always been sort of a buggy affair in my experience. I've tried with and without Seamless mode, and doesn't work with either of them. Additionally, if the guest goes to 100% on all four cores the host could go unstable. Furthermore, you may have encountered problems while using this feature. ![]() If you have an older version of VirtualBox, you should upgrade to the most recent stable version. When I drag from PC to Ubuntu it looks like it is working fine. I can drag files from Ubuntu to PC without a problem. Drag and drop support cannot be enabled with new virtual machines because it is automatically disabled by default. Setup: Win10 on Dell 8900 Virtualbox - Latest version Virtualbox Extensions - Latest version Ubuntu 16.04 LTS - All updates installed Bidirectional Drag/Drop Enabled. Extra cores make the guest run slower, due to extra scheduling overhead on the host. Drag and drop is only possible with VirtualBox 5.0 and later. I have set both 'Shared Clipboard' and 'Drag and Drop' to 'Bidirectional', but neither clipboard sharing nor drag and drop are working in either direction. On another side you have all four physical cores set for possible use in the guest. VirtualBox Bidirectional Copy/Paste not working. Suffice it to say I don't trust Drag-n-drop, and the Guest Additions Shared Folders have always been reliable. Fortunately I did not have important unsaved data open at the time. Did you have your guest Seamless when trying Drag-n-Drop? If so I wonder if Seamless' transparent desktop might interfere with Drag-n-Drop?Īn aside on Drag-n-drop: I have had guests lock up during a failed Drag-n-Drop, with the only solution to kill the guest unceremoniously. (FAT16 and FAT32 drives give problems once shared between guest and host, even if technically they work).Then you don't have a hardening problem and don't need to post the hardening log.įrom the box.log I see that you have the matching version of Virtualbox and Guest Additions, good. Most importantly, drag and drop works in VMware for all 3 9x OSes.įor VirtualBox, since drag and drop does not work, you can create an ISO in the host and mount it or format a USB drive with FAT12 file system, install USB drivers in 9x guests and connect it. You can use VMware's graphics driver or SciTech Display Doctor 7.0, which you must use for VirtualBox. In VMware Workstation, all the 3 OSes work beautifully, all have DirectSound acceleration and proper MIDI playback too. (For 95, you need to turn off all audio acceleration in DxDiag and use emulation for the SoundBlaster so software-based DirectSound at least works properly). With a hack, you can get AC97 working too in 98/Me with full DirectSound acceleration. In VirtualBox you can get every driver installed and working though for Windows 98/Me except the one device related to ACPI (PCI System Peripheral). You also need to make sure the virtual box clipboard is set to bidirectional. Although scrolling with wheel/touchpad no longer works in Windows 98 with USB tablet but works in Windows Me. 7 posts of 1 Drag and Drop not working between guest (Windows 10). It's the only OS that has major issues and only with VirtualBox with mouse movement.ĩ8/Me work fine once pointing device is set to "USB tablet" and the vboxmanage tweak is done as far as I know. Windows 95 in VirtualBox is a very difficult case though because of erratic mouse pointer which jumps suddenly from one edge of the screen to another. ![]()
