Sharing folder between Win10 host and Hyper-V ubuntu vm

Question

Is there any working way to share a folder between Windows 10 and a Hyper_v Ubuntu 16.04 virtual machine?

I have a folder on the host with 70GB of data and I have to work with that data on Ubuntu VM, which was created using Hyper-V technology.

I've tried to use WinSCP and other advice found on google, but that all doesn't work.

Solution

Try using Samba server for sharing folders between two machines. Here is the wikipedia link

Please explore how to setup samba on corresponding OS and get it going.
