With the USB redirection feature, you can use some locally attached USB devices in a remote desktop. You can redirect multiple USB devices to a remote desktop. You cannot redirect USB devices to published desktops and published applications.
Because of Chrome OS restrictions, many USB devices cannot be redirected to a remote desktop. For this release, VMware tested the following USB devices. Additional devices might be supported. If a USB device is not supported, Horizon Client returns an error message when you try to redirect the device.
