Re: error during USB Device attachement!
No, it's actually the system that has captured the device already and you can't have two processes that capture the same device. You'll need to create a filter and insert the device after your VM has started.paolopri wrote:but the system fails to complete the operation.

Re: error during USB Device attachement!
Take an USB extension cable to lock down the attached USB device to an older USB mode. This will fix the impact but not the root cause (not having a proper USB driver with the extension pack).
/update
The root cause is not a bad USB driver it's the way you need set up USB mode and to switch to an higher USB mode

Re: error during USB Device attachement!
If you read the most incidents to this issue above in the Internet, there's a problem to get the USB on the host drive above USB 1.1 on the host.
In this occasion you sometimes get the USB device connected but loose connection at any time. If your're using an extension cable which really has only 4 pins and not 5 as a WD Passport HDD with Micro-B to Type-A (Sorry can't posts links as a new member) you lock down the USB mode and you can connect without any issue.
Main problem is that you can't switch the USB mode while the VM is runnng. It must be switched/ changed in the Oracle VM Box Manager under USB when the VM is switched of. Than you can use the HDD without this "lock down cable". I bet that most tickets are related to this issue 0x80004005 error.

Re: error during USB Device attachement!
No, actually they're not. The OP's problem (and most of the problems) is that "the device is in use". From the host. And since a USB device cannot be shared, it must be freed/released from the host. Not a USB1/2/3 problem. See "USB basics and troubleshooting" for more details.Gaston wrote:I bet that most tickets are related to this issue 0x80004005 error.
