Hi @yadwindersp89 

 

The problem is that the Linux VM knows nothing about a Windows C:\blah\blah directory. There will be a Linux file system that links to a directory on your Windows laptop.

 

Check out this page: https://support.sas.com/software/products/university-edition/faq/SAS_libname.htm

 

Best wishes,

Jeff
