UsbipdGui provides the following features to make sharing USB devices easier with just mouse operations.

- Display connected USB devices
- Bind/Unbind connected USB devices
- Display persisted (disconnected) USB devices
- Ignore specified USB devices

> [!NOTE]
> UsbipdGui requires administrative permission to bind/unbind USB devices.

## Usage

### Bind USB devices

By left-clicking on a connected USB device that has not yet been shared, we can share (bind) that device.
Shared USB devices are marked with "(Shared)".

> [!NOTE]
> UsbipdGui will always force bind.

### Unbind USB devices

By left-clicking on a shared (binded) USB device, we can stop sharing (binding) that device.

### Ignore USB devices

By right-clicking on a connected USB device that has not yet been shared, we can add that device to the ignore list.
Devices added to the ignore list will no longer appear in the "Connected USB Devices" list.
