Ticket #17443 (reopened defect)
Drag and drop operation from guest to host failed - Occurs when trying to move a file with 0kb file size -> fixed in 5.2.20
Reported by: | lukemeow | Owned by: | pentagonik |
---|---|---|---|
Component: | drag and drop | Version: | VirtualBox 5.2.4 |
Keywords: | Cc: | ||
Guest type: | Windows | Host type: | Windows |
Description
Windows XP guest
After receiving this error I started transferring files one at a time and noticed that empty text documents with a file size of 0kb were causing the error.
Error info:
Drag and drop operation from guest to host failed. Another drop operation already is in progress. Result Code: E_INVALIDARG (0x80070057) Component: GuestDnDSourceWrap Interface: IGuestDnDSource {dedfb5d9-4c1b-edf7-fdf3-c1be6827dc28} Callee: IDnDSource {d23a9ca3-42da-c94b-8aec-21968e08355d}
Each time the error occurs, I can no longer move any files and must restart the virtual machine.
VirtualBox does not crash, however When exiting the machine there is an Application Error
Error Details:
The instruction at 0x00007FF8C4742C98 referenced memery at 0x0000000000000028. The memory could not be read.

Interesting find. I tried to replicate it on an OSX 10.11.6 host with a WinXP and a Win7 SP1 VM, both running under VirtualBox 5.2.5 (120042), but it was working on both of them.
I did notice something "strange" in your log:
00:00:01.565209 Executable: A:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VirtualBox.exe
Can you explain the "A:\" part? Are you using Portable VirtualBox or something similar?

A is my main installation location as C is an SSD which i try to keep only windows and little as possible on.
Might help if I also mention my host pc is windows 10 pro, Version 1709, Build 16299.192

have added the logs, followed all the instructions the best i could but the guest log doesn't seem to provide much info.
I also found out that the transfer issue is only one way. Host to Guest can transfer the 0byte file fine, but Guest to host results in error.
