@CySecy825:

No need to mess the network configuration of Virtualbox, since its been set to NAT which means the IP address as been separate to your host so any infections especially worms will not jump out.

For shared folder, click the gear icon of settings (from selected machine you've produced) then click the folder you want to mount on.

but why access needed to be full is that mean malware can bypass

@CySecy825: NAT is a type of network mechanism where creates an isolated IP address to your VM, which means it will not affect your host system with any threats especially worms.

Only shares your active connection through your host system.

If you don 't know what you are doing when it comes to malware testing don't do it. It's great for yourself to learn but I think it's best to watch videos first on YouTube before you go ahead and get into it. Heck that's what I did at first. Watched MrXidus and many other YouTuber's that made videos on malware testing. Then once I deemed myself confident I then went ahead and started.
