Claiming a Device from another Client

Submitted by Ernst du Toit on #1

We have a pool of MODEMs shared between a group of Engineers. Sometimes, one Engineer will forget to release a MODEM and go offsite.

Is there a way for one Client to forcibly takeover a USB Device from another Client?

Possible feature request - have a shared 'loosely' option for a USB port? :)

cheers

Hi Ernst, that feature is already in the client. Start the client with the -a flag. E.g vhui64.exe -a That will start the client in administrator mode. Then when you right click on an an in-use device it will have the option to "Disconnect from User"
