Thanks for reply...
Yes, I've tried v17.0.1 as well as the update. Neither work for the URC remotes... can you send a download link for the previous version with a trial period? Or better yet switch my license? Other wise I'll be patiently waiting, until then I can't use this for my work. I don't mean that to sound rude I do have another machine.
 
UPDATE! It seems now to work! Intermittently, but with a reliable force fix. While vm is running, right click the Parallels logo in MacOS, select Devices, connect remote's USB cable, IF the URCHID option appears, click to make the check mark appear beside it. You'll get an alert Do you want to connect the USB device to the virtual machine? Click Yes even if its greyed out. It works! By the way this is in the 17.0.1 build.
 
Hi,
I've also have this version (latest 17.1.1) no matter what I've done, this doesn't work at all.
also tried to edit the file: sudo nano /Library/Preferences/Parallels/dispatcher.desktop.xml
to change <USB>0</USB> to <USB>1</USB>
But it dosn't work.
I can see the device in my devices, but nothing happens when I click on it. it has no check mark near it when I'm trying to select it nor I can't see it connected to my windows vm.

I've tried version 17.0.1 as sugested here, and I can confirm that it's working well.
 
I've fixed the problem. Hope this works for you.
First, you need to change <USB>0</USB> to <USB>1</USB>
Second, goto System → Security&Privacy → Privacy → Full Disk Access → Add Parallels Desktop
then restart the PD.
 
Thanks,
but the problem still persists.. this is a no fix for me. followed your steps.
Maybe there is a way to remove parallels completely ?
Where are all the files and folder for parallels related? thanks
 
Since upgrading to 17.1.1 I can no longer connect mobile phones via USB to the Windows VM in order to share files or perform debugging. 17.0.1 was working. I also upgraded to Monterey -- am I still able to downgrade to get my functionality back, or am I forced onto 17.1 because of my OS version?
 
Add me to "not fixed" camp. Same here with 17.1.1 (51537). USB Serial adapter stopped working in 17.1.1 (worked flawlessly in 17.0.1). The USB serial device is there, detected OK by the Win10 VM. Device manager showing healthy active device, driver installed etc. However any client s/w attempting to communicate via serial port will fail due to i/o timeout. The serial comms are broken :(
 
Hi, what occurs for me is this, I have a SanDisk 1 TB USB Stick connected, and it is designed to be joined to the VM. Yet, at whatever point the VM is stopped/closure or some other regular activity happens, the drive is not generally associated with Windows. At times it doesn't show up anyplace, and once in a while it appears as an organization drive since it is currently joined to MacOS. In the menu bar, where one can add a check behind the connected usb gadget, the mark doesn't necessarily in all cases mirror what is happening. Generally what I do is I simply click the usb drive in the menu once, pause, in some cases two times of multiple times (continuously holding up a little) and sooner or later during that strategy it will re-join to Windows. It's anything but a major issue, however I recall this used to be better previously. It isn't fixed with 17.1.1 I think.
I'm utilizing Windows 11 delivery adaptation, Big Sur most recent relase, and most recent Parallels, on M1 MB Air.

i would also be interested in this in general. who has any advice?
other question: if i upgrade to monterey or ventura, can i install parallels desktop v16 or v17.0.1? (so that the usb connections work).

I'm running Parallels Desktop 17.0.1 on a MB M1 Max /w Monterey 12.4 and it works fine.
 
Hello, what happens for me is this, I have a SanDisk 1 TB USB Stick attached, and it is configured to be attached to the VM. But whenever the VM is paused/shutdown or some other everyday action occurs, the drive is no longer connected to Windows. Sometimes it does not show up anywhere, and sometimes it shows up as a network drive because it is now attached to MacOS. In the menu bar, where one can add a check behind the attached usb device, the check mark does not always reflect the current situation. Usually what I do is I just click the usb drive in the menu once, wait, sometimes twice of three times (always waiting a bit) and at some point during that procedure it will re-attach to Windows. It is not a big problem, but I remember this used to be better in the past. It is not fixed with 17.1.1 I think.
I am using Windows 11 release version, Big Sur latest relase, and latest Parallels, on M1 MB Air.

Parallels Desktop 19 for Mac, Windows 11, Mac Monterey 12.7.1, Mac mini M1.
USB drive attachment is still not working...
Even though I can check the Parallels Devices to pick the USB it does not show up in Files Explorer. It does show as a Mac disk when Parallels is not running and I eject it prior to starting Parallels. I have been able to make this work on my intel based iMac with Parallels 14. I did apply the suggestion regarding adding Parallels desktop to Full Disk Access in Security.

With an NTFS USB flash drive connected to Windows 11, even on Ventura and Parallels 19.1, I am experiencing issues. The VM will not finalize shutdown, or will not boot, unless I remove the drive. It's a regular SanDisk 1TB drive with no issues. I use Paragon NTFS. The issues are frequent, but not always occur.
