Virtualbox USB Devices Aren't Recognized?

Have you added your user to the vboxusers group? To have the addition take effect - logoff before testing.

sudo gpasswd -a $USER vboxusers

Normally only basic USB1.x is available - you will have to install the extension pack and it must match the version of VirtualBox you are using.

This means - that depending on Manjaro branch and upstream virtualbox - you may need to download the extension pack from virtualbox.org

All these factors are described in the guide.

Right-Click the usb icon - in the running virtual machine status bar - lower right corner of window - the you should have the usb devices
