Can't delete connection rule for USB in workstation 15 pro

I'm using Workstation 15 Pro and i recently connected a USB to my VM which i would use a lot so i decided to check the remember my decision. Now after a week i need that USB in a different VM and i can't get it to connect. So i tried to go to the menu to see if i could delete connection rule and its not there. I checked the Removable Devices and status bar but i only have the option to dissconnect to host, change icon and show in status bar.

All i want to do is delete the rule. Please Help

Please find C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware USB Arbitration Service\usbarb.rules. Please remove the entry associated with your device, or just remove the file.
