Hi

Wow, been looking for this for like forever... (I'm using my cellphone as a hotspot)

1. Follow this stackoverflow topic here, execute the one with more than 600 votes or something. This is just to ensure you have Google Play Store Running in your device.

2. On your genymotion emulator, on Google Play Store, install Wifi USB Disk - Smart Disk Pro.

3. Download Smart Disk Pro from here and install on your PC.

4. Close Genymotion. Start VirtualBox (don't start any emulator), goto Settings->Network, Select the Adapter 2 (Adapter 1 is used primary by Genymotion and cannot change), using Bridged Adapter and select the working network card in Intranet / wireless usually adapter. I selected wireless in my case. Apply and close.

5. Start Smartdisk on your computer. Type in Genymotion on ip/name and specify a password. Click Mount.

6. Start Genymotion and emulator of choice and Open Smartdisk. Choose which disk you want and mount it.

7. If all goes well, you should have your windows explorer showing your device.

Enjoy.
