<div>Is this a recent change? Last time I ran Windows in vbox it would download the needed guest additions when you chose that option, which also ensures you get the right version for your install version of virtual box.</div>

<div>These should actually already be included w/ virtualbox. There's a menu item for each vm that says "install guest additions" which puts a virtual disc into the vm to install it w/o going to the website</div>

<p dir="ltr">The main virtualbox website. It should have a Li k for the add-ons. Download and double click it should trigger virtualbox to install them. You then have a new option in your vm's to install them.</p>

<div>I have a windows7 install disk and I have a unlock code. I was trying to put the os in a virtual box when it suddenly asked for drivers which apparently are not included on the disk. Would someone be as kind as to send me every driver made for windows7?
or you could direct me to where I could download them. The correct command to download them all would be: wget -r <address>
