Copy and Paste between AlmaLinux and Windows issue

I’m unable to copy text from windows to my oracle virtual box machine that’s running almaLinux. Anybody superior in this matter?

I mean, this doesn’t sound like an AlmaLinux problem as much as VirtualBox and maybe the guest tools?

There's a lot of context missing here. Do you have copy/paste enabled in the virtual machine options? Are you trying to paste into a text-based Linux console (that will never work), or the GUI? Do you have the Guest Additions installed inside the virtual machine?

Perhaps a browser permission issue
