[Solved] Shared File Permission deny on Virtual Box

I am very new to linux and I am starting to learn on VM. everything fine until I try to share folder it keeps saying I don't have the permissions necessary to view the contents.

So I tried

sudo usermod -a -G vboxsf username
sudo chown -R username:users /media/sf_foldername

Still won't work

I did a reinstall instead of insert Guest Additions CD I install it in terminal which I think is the problem, and I also use linux lts kernel instead of linux this time.
