Perhaps it would be possible to use Process Monitor to check what Explorer does differently?

Mal angenommen, du drückst Strg+F, wählst die FTP-Verbindung (mit gespeichertem Passwort), klickst aber nicht auf Verbinden, sondern fällst tot um.

Re: [TC11.03] cannot access shared drive from within VirtualBox VM
The problem is that I can't find a way to distinguish "\\Vboxsvr\share" from a real share, and the errors indicate that it is a real share which can't be accessed. I could add a check for the name "Vboxsvr", but then it would cause problems for users who name a server "Vboxsvr".

Maybe not the most elegant way, but under the circumstances, it would solve the problem. What if that solution was disabled by default and the user had to go to the INI and manually set a flag (i.e. Vboxsvr_Shares_Workaround=1)?ghisler(Author) wrote: ↑2024-03-04, 11:03 UTC The problem is that I can't find a way to distinguish "\\Vboxsvr\share" from a real share, and the errors indicate that it is a real share which can't be accessed.

Normally using latest TC on:
x32: WinXPx32 SP3
x64: Clients/Servers from Win7 to Win11 and Win2K12Srv to Win2K22Srv, mainly Win10 though.

No, I would prefer a solution which works directly.
