Description
In order to reproduce, you will need Norton Commander (I have version 3) or Alpha4 (a database manager; I have version 8).
In the guest VM (XP), Windows Explorer and CMD are able to see and list all the files in a shared folder mounted in the guest.
In some cases, alpha4 shows no files at all, and in others, it shows only files with .set extension (it's supposed to show .set and .dbf files always).
Norton Commander shows no files at all in shared folders mounted in the guest.
When issuing a DIR command when Norton Commander is running, I get "Extended Error 234" and no files listed at all (the DIR command should list files normally).
Norton Commander 3.0 can be downloaded from here: https://winworldpc.com/product/norton-commander/3x
