winRM Samba share fails: "Mount point already exists and is not a symbolic link"

Vagrant version

2.2.1

Host operating system

Windows 10 Pro Version 10.0.17134 Build 17134

Guest operating system

Windows 10 Pro Version 10.0.10586 Build 10586

Vagrantfile

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.vm.guest = :windows
  config.vm.communicator = "winrm"
  config.vm.boot_timeout = 120
  config.vm.graceful_halt_timeout = 120
  config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 3389, host: 3389
  config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 5985, host: 5985, id: "winrm", auto_correct: true
  config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 1521, host: 5555

  config.vm.synced_folder "./test", "/test ", type: "smb"
    config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb|

Expected behavior

Samba share mounts successfully and two-way directory sync is established

Actual behavior

Guest share folder is created if it didn't already exist but sync is not established

Steps to reproduce

1. Install Vagrant 2.2.1
2. Import Windows 10 Pro box and create with above Vagrantfile
3. vagrant up

I can't provide the box unfortunately due to licensing. It's a plain Windows 10 Pro box with some fairly standard Oracle software.

Expected behavior

Guest sync folder to be created, and startup to succeed

Actual behavior

Sync folder created but startup get stuck and I got this error message:

I am having the same issue.

[chrisroberts]

When creating the new guest, does the synced folder path on the guest already exist (C:/test)? If so, is this path empty when the guest is created?

[kianting]

I am facing this error also has anyone resolved it yet ?

My vagrantfile setting cfg.vm.synced_folder "/Users/kianting/code/", "Z:", automount: true, create: true
