Sharing a folder between a Window 10 host and a Hyper-V Ubuntu virtual machine


Is there any working way to share a folder between Windows 10 and a Hyper_v Ubuntu 16.04 virtual machine?

I have a folder on the host with 70GB of data and I have to work with that data on Ubuntu VM, which was created using Hyper-V technology.

I've tried to use WinSCP and other advice found on google, but that all doesn't work.


Solution

  • Try using Samba server for sharing folders between two machines. Here is the wikipedia link

    Please explore how to setup samba on corresponding OS and get it going.
