Hi: I have followed the instructions from here to create a persistent bootable Ubuntu (v22.04.2 LTS) USB flash drive that I am booting through VirtualBox [V7.0.6 r155176 (Qt5.15.2)] on Windows 10

The article mentions:

The usbdata partition will be formatted with the NTFS file system. It will be accessible to Linux, Windows, and macOS. This partition is also available from within the live Ubuntu on the USB drive. This means any files copied to the usbdata partition from another computer will be accessible to your live Ubuntu.

In other words, the usbdata partition acts as a "shared folder" between your live Ubuntu and any other computer you plug your USB drive into

I am not able to get this functionality working fully: Files copied from the Host OS (Windows 10) to the usbdata partition of the USB drive are accessible from the Guest OS (Ubuntu) after a unmount/re-mount exercise (on Ubuntu)

This doesn't work the other way around: files copied from Ubuntu to the usbdata partition do not appear on Windows

Thanks for any help in advance
