My Windows 10 guest running on Debian 12 using VirtualBox is creating metadata for every file that is moved or created in a shared folder. They are not seen by Windows, but they are fully visible on Linux. Also, a “System Volume Information” empty folder is created on each boot (shared folder is set to mount automatically) and is write protected, and cannot be deleted from KDE Plasma and only via terminal due to its protection.
How do I stop Windows from polluting my system?
You must log in or # to comment.
Where are they created?
In the root of the shared “drive”
