Description

Hello.
I am running Windows 11 22H2 22621.4249 in VMware Workstation 17.6.0
I try to connect Scrpy 2.7 to my Xiaomi Redmi Note 8.
But I am getting this error when I run scrcpy-console.bat:

![Picture_2024 10 04_22 17 29](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0e3a80d5-7881-43f3-beef-f55a9a63225c)

The usb device in the guest OS is enabled and working fine, I can see the internal storage of my phone from Windows Explorer.
Scrcpy is working with no errors when I connect it through the host OS which is Windows 10. I have been using it for years with no problems with the same phone (both USB debugging settings are enabled).

Any idea what causes this and how I can fix it?

Research direction

Start with scrcpy-console.bat and reproduce scrcpy 2.7 in the Windows 11 22H2 VMware guest using the Xiaomi Redmi Note 8. Compare the guest's USB behavior and reported error with the working Windows 10 host, including the USB debugging setup. Done means identifying a reproducible cause and documented fix, or confirming that the problem is specific to the VMware environment.
