I was able to read an entry in right-click in the shared folder (Mint) and set the permissions to root (and give the password).
a. Nice, I can open my shared folder
b. BAD ! I have to do that all the time !!!
Test feedback:
a. My Linux application can be run from the shared folder. BUT I cannot open the sqlite file. (I get some Exception and I do not care which one it is/was: read below)
Do not ask me why, I do not know.
The night was young when I started tis Linux Mint session.
b. A previous compile (in the Download folder) works. But of course I cannot test the changes I’ve done on the PopupMenu Height (30 instead of 20).
c. At a moment in time, I had the best idea of the millenium (no, really, the best idea of the last 5 minutes only ):
Upload the application to my Cloud server using macOS FireFox, download the application from my Cloud server using Linux Mint Firefox and fire it. *
Works fine, and the PopupMenu (whose height were changed) now display correctly their text !
I nearly forgot:
I am unable to copy (or move) a file from the shared folder to any other part of the Linux ‘hard disk’. It told me the shared folder does not exists (and, of course, I saw it twice: once inthe Linux VM, a second in my macOS SSD.
Yes, to move a file from my SSD to my very same SSD, I send it to the USA (from France) and get it back
Do you know a more stupid action ?
For the record:
Xojo 2015r1
El Capitan (10.11.6)
Linux Mint 18.1 ‘Serena’

Or via GUI (Example Screenshots taken on Linux Mint 18.1 Cinnamon):
After a a that logging out and logging in again (or better a restart of the VM) all should work as wanted and you should be able to access the file in your shared folder correctly.
also: Yes that’s correct. the MenuBar is normaly on the Bottom off the Monitor, on the left side.
I Like the Style of the old Gnome 2 Desktop, so i configrued it to be on the Top.

Hi Emile,
This may be of no help, I don’t know about VM.
But, I have seen Mint Linux lock all of the files copied from the network into Shared folders. what I do is: On the Mint desktop, make a new folder (Mine is labeled “Transfer”)with permission for everybody. Drag it into the shared folder and then, from the other locations, put files into “Transfer”. Here, they are not locked.
