Recently, I installed the system in VMware workstations 15 and tried to mount the USB dongle to the virtual machine, only to find that the automatic mount function that worked normally in 14 failed! Every time you restart the physical host, you have to manually mount the USB encryption dog to the virtual machine.

So the search of Hu Tian Haiti all over the world, after flipping through a lot of English documents (not so awesome X, with the help of Google Translation and Baidu Translation) finally found a solution, which is recorded here to share with you.

The English document is here: https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/1648

The Chinese document is here: https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/1648?lang=zh_CN

The original text is to find ID in the registry. I will change it here to make it more convenient and intuitive. Take my USB disk as an example.

Find the VID and PID of the USB disk in the device Manager (either a virtual machine or a physical machine):

Write it down (hexadecimal): 0x781penny 0x5567

Then open the .vmx file of the virtual machine to which the USB device needs to be mounted, and add a line to it:

Usb.autoConnect.device0 = "0x781:0x5567"

If you need a virtual machine to mount multiple USB devices automatically, you can add:

Usb.autoConnect.device0 = "0x781:0x5567"

Usb.autoConnect.device1 = "0x529:0x1"

Usb.autoConnect.device2 =....

Usb.autoConnect.device3 =....

Finally, when the virtual machine is turned on, the USB device will be automatically connected to the virtual machine, which realizes the function of mounting a specific USB device to a specific virtual machine.
