I want to export a saved game from Dosbox-x to the host system. I can mount a folder on the host and access it from Dosbox-x, I can write to the mounted folder within Dosbox-x, but does not seem to change anything to the host folder itself. It looks like the mounted drive is a copy that is deleted as soon as Dosbox-x terminates.
Is there a way to export a file from Dosbox-x to the host?
Thanks!

Usually DOSBOX uses real filesystem. You mount some directory to be C:\ in DOSBOX. Just go to this directory and copy whatever you need - not inside DOSBOX.
