<p>Hello, I have installed VirtualHere Server on macOS 10.15.7 for testing before I buy a license here. I would like to access a SmartCard Reader (Reinert SCT) from a Windows 10 system. The installation went without problems. Unfortunately, I can not access the reader from Windows. On the client side I get the error "There was an Error using this device".<br />
The server is started as sudo the server log looks like this:

Looks like OSX is blocking it from being redirected, so its not going to work via virtualhere.
Thanks Michael for your
Thanks Michael for your response. After I installed VirtualHere again I now get this error:
