I have installed VirtualBox 4.1.18 on Ubuntu 12.10 and I'm hosting Windows XP.



I want to share a folder between Ubuntu and Windows XP.



I have installed guest additions on the guest machine, but when I'm trying to access the shared folder, I can't find them anywhere.



So, where can I access those shared folders?

Have you read this guide:
Shared folders



The process of creating a shared folder is well explainded in this guide.
In short:
1) In your VM properties set a shared folder on host machine.
2) Boot the guest machine and run the following command:



net use x: vboxsvrshare


where x - is the name of the drive with virtual folded. You may leave it as is, and share - is the name of the folder you've created on host machine.
