hi
so when you say the device is not recognized then you mean the device doesnt appear in the drop down list?
if so - that will be because the device has a mouse as part of it and it will be being blocked. so to "allow" the device simply add an "Include Vid/Pid" rule for the device. (dont configure the splitting).
now, the device should be available to forward to the guest.
with regard to the log file then that is unfortunatelu the wrong log file. So if the above suggestion doesn't work and we need to look at the logs, then the logs I need are here:
%PROGRAMDATA%\VMware\VDM\logs\debug-xxxx-xx-xx-xxxxxx.txt
cheers
