I've not used shared folders recently mostly because I don't use Windows guests all that much.

I've just enabled it and connected my Windows 10 guest and it has been working just fine
after one hour.

I'm using VirtualBox-6.0-6.0.4_128413_fedora29-1 direct from Oracle and that VBbox Guest
tools has been installed on the guest.
