Question

I need to add pass-through USB device in a container already configured (I have installed some programs on it). Is it possible to add this device in Docker compose and update the VM without reinstalling everything?

Yes, no problem.

[LuanVorle]

OK, but how should I do this? Just modify the compose.yml? Sorry, This is my first time using docker. I'm a little lost

Hi LuanVorle, my issue is similar. I was trying to increase the memory RAM of the Docker (equivalent to modify the configuration without reinstalling https://github.com/dockur/windows/issues/607). I am not an expert either. I was reading about it, and I think the issue is related to the way Docker in general works. Docker facilitates deployment of apps and services, and windows is not exactly an "application or a service." Probably having access to the KVM behind the Docker would allow to modify the configuration of the VM itself.

@LuanVorle Yes, just modify the compose.yml
