What about this? folder redirection including USB sticks

Yes, but only for USB storage devices and only if you have automount enabled, then it _should_ just work

Where do I enable the automount? In Igel OS the USB device is recognized but its not mounted in wvd

Goto Devices->Storage Devices-> Storage Hotplug and enable “Storage Hotplug” accept the other defaults.

Also verity Devices-Storage Hotplug->Options->Browse directory = userhome/media

When this set, within WVD you should be able to access the usb drives (that will be mapped as folders) under “media on %CLIENTHOSTNAME% in “This PC” using Windows Explorer

You could map it to a driveletter on serverside using eg “net use r: \tsclientmedia”
