In the end I can't access Mac folders, I've tried everything. The Windows 10 uses a program that is part of Parallels Tools, called Shared Folders. But this doesn't exit for the Win98 and there seems to be no way to see the Mac from inside Win98.
I can't believe I'm resurrecting this stuff. Looking back on it, I think some of the stuff I was touching on such as the setup switches, were problems FLATFOOT_57 wasn't really having...Anyway, I found this blog post about running on a modern Mac using a VM called UTM. I'm not really interested in the whole enchilada (the particulars of that VM, etc.), just the bit about how whoever wrote this blog entry transfers files between the host OS and the VM.

Of course there's what FLATFOOT_57 already pointed out that works:
Now the more interesting bit:You can use the virtual CD drive in UTM to mount and unmount different ISO images, as we did a few times in the above steps already. Do keep in mind that bin/cue or mdf files will first need to be converted to the ISO format before they are usable.
An FTP server ran from the host OS! Duh! Why didn't I think of that?!After some searching, for me using FTP, although kind of considered unsafe as well, worked the best. It’s not easy to find a working FTP-server for a modern macOS version like Big Sur or Monterey but fortunately I found an application called QuickFTP Server. This app is free and can be installed from the App store in macOS.
The blog post walks through the set up of that particular FTP server software, not sure that QuickFTP Server works on whatever version of MacOS that FLATFOOT_57 was using, but surely *some FTP server software* could be made to work in a similar manner...
