I am trying to install the Windows software for my UPS.
The replace battery light isn't and it tests fine with linux software (NUT) but is runs down fast so I wanted to try the Windows software.
I stopped the nut client and server but I can't get virtualbox to see it.

I have no USB devices listed in virtualbox but I have 2 USB webcams listed (and there is only 1 physical webcam).

EDIT: nice of Windows not to say it thinks my hardware did so it hasn't updated.
I'm going to try to fix Windows.

That's a show-stopper right there. It looks like you're using the distro's fork version of VirtualBox. You can either ask in their forums/channels for help, or completely remove/uninstall/delete/purge their version and install the official version from the Linux Downloads section of VirtualBox. You can even add VirtualBox as a repository, so you could use your traditional install/upgrade/uninstall tools.

After that, you need to 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.

I uninstalled the ubuntu version and ran the generic .run one:

Still no UPS and 2 webcams.

Windows is such a pain.
I may just reinstall it.

Why? There's a specific version for your Ubuntu, why go for the generic one?

Still I didn't see anything related to the troubleshooting information that I asked for...
