Description
Running Centos 7.7 Host with a Windows 10 Guest using a Shared Folder. I have experienced issues in the past with Shared Folders, but in the past it only seemed to affect the Guest systems. This issue is hard to troubleshoot since the Host system freezes, I can only resolve it by unplugging the power. I have tried using the SysRq keys to no avail. In troubleshooting the issue, I have stopped all other host applications except VirtualBox and disconnected the Shared folder. For a week, I did not experience any freezing of the host the system. If I connect the Shared Folder I will randomly experience a hard freeze in a couple of hours or a couple of days.
The host system has 16GB RAM and 4 cores. I am using 4GB and 2 cores for my Windows 10 1909 guest.
I do not know how to troubleshoot this any further since the Host system hard freezes, I do not get any indications of problems in any of the host logs. It most likely freezes before documenting the problem. I welcome any tests or settings which you want me to implement in order to determine the problem or fixes.
