copying files from host OS to guest OS on Virtual Machine

 Configuring file copy from host machine to  Guest OS and from guest OS to host machine in avirtual box environment. This will be helpful when you have some files downloaded on you Host mahine and you want to copy them to Guest OS.

On virtual box Guest OS  click on devices and select shared folder as bellow screen







Then select the folder on your Host machine's directory that you want to share between host 
and guest OS.












Once you have selected the right directory make it read-only if you want to just read files from that directory. Also select auto-mount so you can have this folder always mounted when you restart/start you guest OS.
