windows 10 vm will not pick up usb drive

I'm using vmware 12.5.5 player with a windows 10 32bit virtual machine and it will not pick up a usb drive. The icon at the top rh corner shows the usb drive is connected but there is no drive in device manager, no drive in disk management and nothing in windows explorer. I've tried completely uninstalling vmware tools and installing the latest tools -  VMware-tools-windows-10.3.10-12406962.iso but nothing works and I've been wrestling with this for a week. I have other vm's like a windows 7 one and that picks up a usb drive fine. Thanks for any help.
