Can't get Shared Folders working 6 Months, 1 Week ago Karma: 0
I managed to get my existing XP Mode imported into VMlite, but I can't get shared folders working. When I go into explorer I don't seem them under my computer, if I drop down entire network, I see vmlite folders listed and if I drop download I see \\.host\c and \\.host\d but if I click on one I am told it is not accessible and I might not have permissions.

you need to map a network drive inside xp mode vm, the path is "\\.host\sfs"

or run the following from a cmd line:

net use H: \\.host\sfs

also make sure you have added shared folders to the vm.
