Install the guest additions (Start the VM, then press Right Ctrl + D) , then open the VM properties, go to General > Advanced > Drag'n'Drop > Choose an option. Shared Clipboard is there as well.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

I installed allready this VBoxGuestAdditions, but no success.
Clipboard works (bidirectional), but means only copy&paste some text. Drag&Drop I Need to check, maybe an UAC thing....I don't think...I think it is simply not supporter.
Just tried VMware-Player (one can really create a virtual machine with player, notes from VMWare do "exclude" this option)... Drag&Drop works perfect

As others mentioned, you have to load the guest editions.
Now, I know your VM in W7, however, in my experience with Ubuntu, I was never able to get copy and paste to work. IIRC, it worked in the 32 bit Ubuntu version. Don't know though if that problem has been fixed.
Isn't VMWare free too?
BTW, I almost never use the VM's "screen" directly -- I found it much more efficient to remote in with remote desktop, PuTTY, and WinSCP. Go figure.

Yes VMWare is also free, but only for personal use.
Thanks for your hints.

It seems I need to spend this bucks to use it. And the $ is really acceptable from my point of view. Thank you very much for this hint.

Cool, I will have to consider using VMWare then too.

And why that UI is so pathetic.
1. A huge waste of space, taking up 80% of my monitor unless I resize it.
2. Chat window requires clicking on some obtuse icon.
3. It's tiny, because of course 80% of the UI has to be reserved for ads, so I have to resize it manually.
Skype has become such a piece of sh*t since Microsoft got hold of it (not that it wasn't before, haha).
It's funny, I was just thinking how pathetic most UI's have gotten in the last few years, as they make room for more and more ads, social media bling, and other crap that I don't need. I think if you showed the UI design of 2014 to someone in the late 80's, they would scream at all the bullshit taking up valuable screen space.

Thank you - we just got letters that the company unifies the usage of IM software. From January we all move to Skype...
Can't wait for it 
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Have been reading about this initiative of expert advice on programming questions that is in the main section of CP. Did anyone notice that the link back to CodeProject is broken on Google's page? https://support.google.com/helpouts/topic/6109483?hl=en&ref_topic=6093032[^]. Someone should be fired...!

No it's not, I just tried it. Must have been fixed.

Reuters site is hacked too... It must have been an advertisement rotator, but as the page was loading I got redirected to a "You need to update Flash Player" page hosted on FavDownloads dot something. Plus the comical "Are you sure you and to leave this page" message pop-up when I used the back button.
These guys are sooo lame...

Someone needs to be at the bottom of the food-chain.

I just had a bowl of fruit loops. Never had them before, that I can recall. Will never have them again. I was desperate: needed food and it was all I could find in the office kitchen (yes, way too lazy to walk the hundred yards to the store and actually buy something).
To be fair, I had a few mouthfuls and threw the rest away.
How do people eat that krap??? Tasted like I was eating fruit flavored sugar which, I suppose, I was.
I did manage to eat a packet of peanuts instead.

As someone who used to work there and make them, they are not my cup of tea. They are marketed to children for a reason.
However, Kellogg has started produced Mini Wheats with fruit in the middle; I am quite enjoying them in the morning (a change of pace from two slices of toast and peanut butter)

Took them long enough. Someone else, don't recall if Post or General Mills, was doing shredded wheat with vaguely fruity filling 25 or 30 years ago when I was a kid.
Also, I feel old for some reason this morning. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I don't remember the Post/General Mills product, although I suspect General Mills. Post tends to be sugar frosted Cocoa Bombs marketed towards children.
The Kellogg product I currently have has identifiable raisins in the center as opposed to something akin to, but maybe not ACTUALLY, fruit.
