Title: USB devices not redirecting (Windows 7 64-bit)
Post by Chris_Lynch on Feb 16th, 2010, 2:00pm
I am testing the USB for RDP application for some VDI deployments.  And I just cannot seem to get simple redirection to work.  As you can see from the images I have captured, the workstation shows all of the available devices.  However, none of them are redirecting.  I had disabled the "Other supported Plug and Play devices" setting in the RDC client.  I also tried it Enabled.  No changes.

Both systems are Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.

I think I fixed my problem.  I had swapped the installs around (installed the Workstation component when I should have installed the Server, and vice-versa, even though I removed the app before installing the correct one.)  I deleted the registry entries under HKCU\Fabrutech that matched the install that should have been removed, and now I can re-direct my ActivKey token.  Now off to test my Windows Mobile device.

Chris,

I'm glad the problem is solved. Feel free to ask your questions here or at support@fabulatech.com.

I am still running into some issues.  It appears that if you disconnected a device, and represented it back to the remote host, USB for RDP will show the device as "Connected" but it will not show up in Device Manager.

Also, I cannot get any Windows Mobile device to be recognized with your product.  I have tried both USB For RDP and USB For Network.  Has anyone been success in redirecting a Windows Mobile device to then sync via Windows Mobile Device Center?

I'll send you a link to a pre-release version 2.8, please try it and tell me if it solves either of the problems.

George, I haven't received any PM for the 2.8 version.  I would really love to test 2.8 to see if it resolves the issue.  USB over Network doesn't fix my issue either.

Chris,

Alex Webster should have already re-sent it to you.
