Edgeport install on ESX 6.5

Hello all,

Is it possible to get an Edgeport/4 working on a 2008R2 VMWare ESXi 6.5 VM?

I have USB passthrough on the VM, the 2008R2 recognizes the device and installs the drivers successfully but the Edgeport Utility does not recognize it nor does it install the necessary COM ports. Thanks in advance.

No errors or warnings in device manager

Edgeport properties is a blank white screen. If I disconnect the Edgeport, it shows no devices were detected.
