[ Solved ] Vagrant Folder Mount Issue

By default vagrant mounts the host folder to /vagrant directory of the Virtual machine where you have the vagrantfile. This allows us to share files and codebase to the virtual machine without dealing with file transfer utilities or SCP command.

But you might face error sometimes that it does not mount the host directory to the vagrant folder. This happens mostly due to os update. To resolve this follow the steps given below.
