Trying to share a folder with host and guest in Virt - manager / KVM

I am trying to share a folder in Virt - manager in Linux host using Samba to my Windows 10 guest. I have tried connecting via ip "\10.0.2.2" as recommended in an outdated guide about virtualizing Windows XP. Am I using the wrong ip, or is there an up to date guide on folder sharing? Is samba the best option?

You can get your IP with

ip addr 

You will need to add the directories you want to share in the /etc/samba/smb.conf directory.

I'm not sure how you're planning on sharing your drives with guest or user auth. But the samba wiki might be a good place to start.
