Synology - update VirtuaHere to 4.6.6.-1466 USBs stay connected and locked even after disconnecting client

Submitted by Jiri on #1

Hi Michael, 
Running Synology DS216j with DSM 7.1.1. After the last update VirtuaHere to 4.6.6.-1466, USB dongles and sticks stay connected even after disconnecting client. When I forget disconnect in VirtualHere panel manually USB before switching off the client, I am not able to connect it anymore, even with the same client. I have to pull out the USB dongle from the Synology and put it back. Before the update the connections were released automatically, without problems.

I think there is a bug in the DSM firmware. I got that weird error yesterday on a similar machine ds120j and it never used to do it.

Anyway uninstall the virtualhere app and rollback to the previous version 4.3.2 by downloading the spk from here https://archive.synology.com/download/Package/VirtualHere/  

See if that helps. You can manually install an spk in the Package Center -> Manual Install.

Let me know if that fixes the issue or not after a few days.

After uninstalling the latest version and installing the previous one, everything seems to be OK. 
Thank you for the advice. VirtualHere works great.
