C:\Windows\System32>usbipd wsl list BUSID VID:PID DEVICE STATE 2-2 aaaa:8816 USB Mass Storage Device Attached - WSL 2-10 8087:0026 Intel(R) Wireless Bluetooth(R) Not attached

Then following the steps on this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB

none of these are the usb storage device that I attached, which is a 32gb usb stick

Expected Behavior

I would have expected to see sd{x} as the 32gb usb stick

Actual Behavior

device not seen, see above

Have you installed this?

guide I reference.

ubuntu18-wsl$ lsusb Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 004: ID 090c:1000 Silicon Motion, Inc. - Taiwan (formerly Feiya Technology Corp.) Flash Drive Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

Thanks for the feedback.

Yes, usbipd-win_3.1.0 installed.

I then followed the guide you suggested, with the same result as in my original post. usbipd wsl list shows the device attached. sudo fdisk -l does not show the device, so it cannot be mounted

[dawright172]

Identical behavior with usbipd_win_3.2.0 using Ubuntu 22.04 (kernel version 5.15.90.1).

The USB device shows up using "lsusb", but does not appear with "lsblk" or "sudo fdisk -l".

Use case is flashing images to embedded devices where flash is exposed as a filesystem.

Did anyone made progress here?! I am facing the same issue on Windows 11 and usbipd-win 4.1.0...

When is this issue going to be resolved?
