Ticket #6314, comment 29

-              initial
+              v1
 HGMC tried to restore the shared folders, but failed loading "/Users/vbox/tinderbox/ ..." since there is no such resource on my host (Mac OS X 10.9.2).
+I was unable start the saved session. I got the error every time. I don't know why this happened, neither how to fix it. But I managed to work around this. In VirtualBox Manager it wasn't possible to power off the machine, since it was in ''saved state''.  [http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch08.html#vboxmanage-modifyvm] describes the action '''discard state'''. It is intended to discard the state of a ''not running'' VM. But I called this action (using a shell) on my ''saved state'' VM. The next time, when I started the VirtualBox Manager, the VM was ''powered off''. Starting the VM worked and Windows 8.1 started properly - there was only one warning that a shared folder wasn't restored.

 This did it for me and I think it's a quite simple work-around.
