I use the USB Lib in the version 1.1.14-3 long since, with this i had no problems. The device is a USB Hub (SMSC USB2513)

At least in V 1.1.14-3 it was visible in the Device list.

With the V 1.2.2.1 or V 1.2.2.0 does not find this hub any more in the list.

Hub support was dropped mainly because set configuration requests hang indefinitely. We will look into a better fix for this more over the next few releases.

Out of curiosity, what are you using libusb-win32 with a hub for?

It is the block of code in libusb_driver.c:155, add_device() // Don't attach to usb device hubs if (strstr(compat_id, "class_09"))

libusb-win32 project is in a support only mode. Mailing list support is still provided, no changes to the codes and release.

I believe HUB support is difficult and I think this is not worth the efforts. So I will keep the wontfix label.
