Enless multiple files when accessing boxcryptor in virtual machine of virtual box

basw

When using the boxcryptor drive as a shared folder in a Virtual Machine of VirtualBox, I get endless duplications of all folders and files. Is there a solution for this?
I work mainly in Virtual Machines, so for me it is not workable right now.
Thanks for your help!

Hello basw and Boxcryptor team.

I can confirm this behavior with a shared BoxCryptor drive on the host (Windows 7 Pro 64-Bit) while using VirtualBox Windows 7 32-Bit (German).

But this ONLY occurs when using VirtualBox from Oracle.

I tested the integrated WinXp Mode (32-Bit Windows XP Pro guest system)for Win7 Pro and Ultimate Versions: no Problem!
VmWare Player (Windows 7 Pro 32-Bit): No Problem!

Access to other, non Boxcryptor folders works without this endless "counting".

It must be the method how VirtualBox accesses the share (it does it by a mapped network drive letter).

Any change this will ever get solved? Or tips for work arounds?
Thanks!

Hi,

As only very few users are affected by this issue, it does not have a high priority on our todo list. So for now, I don't know when it will get solved, sorry.

Best regards,
