USB Device Incorrectly Identified
Posted: 13. Jun 2019, 12:57
I have a USB device I have been using successfully with a Windows 10 guest on a Linux host for a while, but recently it has not been correctly identified by the host when I try to use it. I can see that it is detected as it appears as two HID devices, but the software that reads it cannot find it. This may be due to a change in VBox as I recently upgraded to the latest version, but I have also updated Windows. The reader software has not changed.
