Hi,
I've been using USB devices on Workstation for a while and everything worked fine until recently.
I recently updated to the latest, 12.5.4 and now the USB devices don't show up in the menu anymore for any of my virtual machines. I tried to reboot the host and guest systems, check and change settings (USB 3.0 to USB 2.0 and vice-versa, check/uncheck the different checkboxes in the USB setting for each VM) as well as plugging the cards/flash drives (that used to work) on the different ports on the system (some are USB3.0, some are USB 2.0). I cannot seem to have the USB devices display in the VM->Removable devices anymore.
Before anybody point out the obvious, I checked, yes they are recognized by my host, Windows, and I can see them plugged in the system tray. Yes, the virtual machines have USB in them and the kernel is recent enough to use USB (Kali 2016.2, Ubuntu 16.04, 16.10, 17.04 alpha/beta, CentOS 7, etc). This issue is present on all my VM (that used to work just fine).
Last I remember using USB device is for sure 12.5.2. I may have used it in 12.5.3 but I'm not 100% certain.
Is there something I missed or is it a bug in the release?
