VB Guest freezes when you browse to shared folder with particular file in it

Description
I run Win10pro 64 bit Host and Guest.
I copied AEROADMIN.EXE (commercial remote access client program) to the shared folder in the host. When I open the folder in the guest the guest freezes solid.
If I remove this file from the shared folder I can open the shared folder in the guest without problem (even with other zip and exe files in it)
This occurred in v6.0.10 so I upgraded but it still occurs in 6.0.12

Yes both VB and the guest additions is v6.0.12r133076. Both host and guest are win10pro 1903. Host runs trend micro but I disabled it to test and same result.

I'd like to see a VBox.log. You were actually supposed to follow these steps when you filed the bug, and provide a VBox.log:
Attach a (full) log file ("Machine" menu/"Show Log" in the main VirtualBox Manager window) straight away to save time for you and for us. The log file contains a lot of useful information about both the host and the guest systems as well as information about what happened during a particular machine run. Please do not cut and paste it.

Actually try to completely uninstall it, don't just disable it. Disabling it affects the front-end (most of the times), not the engine running in the background...

Apologies. I tried to reproduce the crash to get the log file but it works fine now AFAICS. I can view and even run the sample problem EXE in the shared folder. I will leave the bugtracker to the experts from now on. Regards

Great! I guess we can close this as a [WorksForMe] then, since it actually works for you... ;)

Are you 100% sure that you upgraded the Guest Additions (GAs) in the guest as well?
