I want to install Guest Additions in a virtual Windows 7 running inside Ubuntu. The VirtualBox instructions are:

In the "Devices" menu in the virtual machine's menu bar, VirtualBox
has a handy menu item named "Install guest additions", which mounts
the Guest Additions ISO file inside your virtual machine. A Windows
guest should then automatically start the Guest Additions installer,
which installs the Guest Additions into your Windows guest.

How do I get to the "Devices" menu in the virtual machine's menu bar?

virtual Win 7

virtual box manager

Right There, Third Menu option.Click it a drop down menu will appear, the last Option is to Install Guest Additions.

When you boot into Windows Press Host+D (Host is usually the right
Control key). That will mount the Vbox Guest Additions ISO into Windows and the autorun prompt will appear.
