Kali Linux Virtual Box Enable Wireless Interface

After installing the virtual machine: "VirtualBox-6.1.10-138449-Win.exe" and the extension for it: "Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-6.1.12.vbox-extpack", I imported the appliance: "kali-linux-2020.2a-vbox-amd64.ova" and discovered that when right clicking on the network icon in the top right corner of the the Kali desktop there was no option for "Enable WiFi".

I followed the instructions at https://thetechrim.com/fix-wireless-drivers-problem-in-kali-linux2020/.

The only difference is that I used "sudo make unload" and "sudo make load".

Now I will see if I can get the Kali Linux virtual machine to recognize the USB Wifi adapter.

PS: I also saved a copy of the necessary files at https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TyZSLGacFpv2GxpUwQ1GAShIUqi6IDPg/view?usp=sharing
