How to automatically connect every usb device to vm

Post by Nlk29 »

Hi,

is there a way to automatically connect every (new) usb device (except the ones i've blacklisted) to the vm?
I want to run a vm as my daily driver.

thank you for your awnsers.

An empty USB filter with no items filled in except a name will capture all USB devices. However, there is no "blacklist" or "reject" filter mode. So you can't enter something that rejects the keyboard and mouse but takes everything else. Neat idea, but not possible.

You'll have to capture each device specially, either with a filter or on the fly.
