USB doesn't detect any devices

I've been researching all over the internet for a solution and can't seem to find an answer. You're my last resort. I've installed Kali Linux on Virtualbox and it doesn't recognize any USB device that I plug into the USB ports. Therefore, I can't detect my WIFI network adapter to use it. But on my host machine, everything is detected, no problem. I have the last version of Linux Mint installed, just in case you need that information. I have the last version of Virtualbox and the extension pack installed. What am I doing wrong?

Please read the following thread: USB basics and troubleshooting, all of the posts. If you still have a problem after reading through the whole thing, please follow the advice of the last post, #8: Asking for help and post the information requested.

Since you can't see *any* devices, I think you didn't add yourself in the appropriate group.
