On Vmware (Workstation or ESXi) you can send a physical USB device directly to the Guest machine as though its plugged into it and this generally works great.
However if the Host OS (in the case of Workstation) or the computer running vSphere client (in the case of ESXi) is for example Windows 7 x64 , and there is no driver for the USB device available on that computer. But the guest OS is Windows XP x86 and has drivers for that device, is there a way to pass the 'unknown' USB device to the guest OS and have it recognise and use it ?
Hello,
There's a nice repo on GitHub at github.com/ItzLevvie/MicrosoftTeams-msinternal/ that lets you pull various versions of Microsoft Teams. You might want to try some of those to see if they work better.
As always, use caution when trusting random scripts on the internet.

Claude has always had issues with Windows, it prefers MacOS or Linux environments. You can see that with how badly it handles PowerShell commands and the fact up until recently tried using BASH commands in Windows.... That was with both Claude CLI and Claude Desktop. It does work well with a WSL environment to a degree. Not sure if these issue are fully resolved, but given the article I wouldn't be surprised if it hasn't.
