In the shared folder with enabled virtio-fs service (win11 VM + ubuntu 24 host):
When I try to rename a file in the Windows Explorer, I got a windows pop-up error:
"Can't read from the source or disk"
When I try to rename a file in the command prompt, I got an error:
"A device attached to the system is not functioning."
When I try to create a folder in the Windows Explorer , I got a windows pop-up error:
Error 0x8000FFFF Catastrophic failure
What is working:
- Creating a new file.
- Editing and saving text file, but not MS Word file probably due to temporary files creation and renaming.
- Copying files from Win11 FS to the shared folder.
- Deleting files and folders.
- Creating folder in the command prompt
To Reproduce
Create a new VM with win11 home edition under Ubuntu 24 host
Install virtio-win-0.1.217.iso
Install winfsp-2.1.25156.msi
Follow the tutorial from:
https://www.debugpoint.com/kvm-share-folder-windows-guest/
Expected behavior
Files must be able to renamed in shared folders and new folders must be created.
