VirtualBox allows a USB stick to be concurrently accessed from Linux Lite Virtual Machine (VM) and Windows host operating system. It gives us the ability to save files created on Linux Lite to a USB device. It also enables us to use a USB stick to transfer files between Linux and Windows. To transfer the files, the USB stick must be inserted on the Windows machine prior to running VirtualBox. The drive letter setting in line 15 of the vb.bat file must be correct for successfully sharing the USB stick as described above. The USB stick can be accessed from the directory /mnt/vbox/ on your Linux Lite VM.
