Re: How to get guest OS to see USB drive on QEMU

[Darac Marjal <mailinglist@darac.org.uk>]

If you configure a "SPICE" video port, the SPICE protocol allows for USB redirection from clients. In other words, you can open a viewer to the VM, plug in your USB device locally and then "forward" it to the VM.

Hi Folks,

I am running the latest Debian Stable (10.2) with AQEMU frontend for QEMU 0.9.2 (2016.05.31). The guest OS is Windows 10. How to I get that gues OS, Windows, to "see" a flash drive plugged into a USB port? My search for a solution on the web has been unsuccessful so far.

Thanks you in advance for your help.
