Logitech universal receiver in VM?

Hi,

I need my Windows 10 VM to be able to see the Logitech Universal Receiver usb dongle (so my universal Logitech keyboard can switch to Windows specific functionalities while in the machine).

It looks like this is not possible from within VMWare Fusion 10.x

Even if I tell it to share USB and BlueTooth devices.

Is there any way to let my VMs see that receiver which is originally connect to my Mac?
Thanks for any help.

Steve J

It could be the case that Fusion sees the Logitech receiver as a human interface device (HID). You could try the steps outlined in this KB.

Sorry for the late reply.
I did already follow those instructions before posting. Unfortunately, the Logitech USB Universal Receiver is still not seen...
