For the months I've been trying VB, I've not been able to use USB on any Windows hosts be it XP, Vista or Windows 7. Neither can I find much discussion about the problem. I've just tried the keyword search 'USB' on this forum which returns "No suitable matches were found," which is obviously in error considering the term appears frequently in the subject lines.
Anyway, story goes, I plug in a device, any device. It detects on the host and I wait for it to settle in. I then select the device for the guest with a few typical initial results ranging from the host detecting the VirtualBox USB hardware and prompting for drivers which are then loaded somewhat automatially. No device appears. The device is unticked in the VB device list. If a second attempt is made it throws a busy error:
and details such as:USB device '<device>' with UUID {130f...7ed} is busy with a previous request. Please try again later.
This happens on every computer I've loaded VB onto and I can't fathom either what I'm doing wrong or why it's not being addressed. I tried VB versions 3.1.4, 3.1.6, and now 3.2.6 with no luck or clue.Result Code:
E_INVALIDARG (0x80070057)
Component:
