Can't install VBox Guest Additions to enable shared folders

$

My config:
VirtualBox 4.3.14 on Win 7
Installing Ubuntu Server 13.10 as a VM


  1. I downloaded the Oracle Extension Pack from here. https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads. This is the actual filename: http://download.virtualbox.org/virtu...0.vbox-extpack which ends with "vbox-extpack".
  2. I started the VM, and under the Devices menu, I did "Insert Guest Additions CD Image."
  3. I got an error "Unable to insert the virtual optical disk C:\vbox\VboxAdditions.iso into the machine mymachinename". Buttons are "Force Unmount" and "Cancel".
  4. So what do I do with the Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-4.3.14-95030.vbox-extpack, and how do I get shared folders working?


Thanks.
