Vagrant sync folder doesn't work on windows 10

Question

I'm trying to sync folders from a windows 10 hosto to a ubuntu guest but I get this error:

$ vagrant up

Failed to mount folders in Linux guest. This is usually because
the "vboxsf" file system is not available. Please verify that
the guest additions are properly installed in the guest and
can work properly. The command attempted was:

mount -t vboxsf -o uid=`id -u vagrant`,gid=`getent group vagrant | cut -d: -f3`,nolock,vers=3 core /sync_workspace
mount -t vboxsf -o uid=`id -u vagrant`,gid=`id -g vagrant`,nolock,vers=3 core /sync_workspace

The error output from the last command was:

stdin: is not a tty
unknown mount option `nolock'
valid options:
  rw         mount read write (default)
  ro         mount read only

Here is my Vagrantfile

Vagrant.configure(2) do |config|
   config.vm.box = "ubuntu/trusty64"
   config.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 8080, host: 8080
   config.vm.synced_folder "C:/Users/rafa/Documents/personal docs", "/vagrant_data/sync_workspace"
end

Host : Windows 10 Guest: Ubuntu Vagrant: 1.8.1 VirtualBox : Version 5.0.20 r106931

Any Help?

Install the vagrant vaguest plugin and let it install the host's VirtualBox Guest Additions on the guest system and in your case it will update your guest addition
