usbipd win is a Windows tool designed for managing USB devices using the USB/IP communication protocol. Users can work with remote hardware as if it was connected to the local machine. It is worth mentioning that all manipulations are performed through a command line console like PowerShell.

Device allocation

The application enables you to easily share peripherals like printers or external hard drives connected to one PC with other networked desktops. This is especially helpful in environments where a particular device needs to be accessed by multiple systems.

There is a command to list all available USB hardware for easier selection and management. Moreover, users can output the current device state to a JSON file to simplify future analysis and troubleshooting.

Advanced configuration

It is possible to tweak default policy rules, preventing unauthorized accounts from accessing confidential information in shared disk partitions. Additionally, you are able to start a custom server on the console. Linked devices may be unbound manually as well.

All available arguments are displayed in the console window along with short descriptions when running the main executable file. Please note that a certain level of familiarity with the command line interface is necessary for working with the software.
