Compatibility with Android device, especially when sharing network with Android.

Host OS: ArchLinux with LTS kernel, since the latest kernel from Arch repository is unknown for VMware, I have to use LTS kernel.

Guest OS: Windows11.

Connect an Android device (through USB cable) to Guest OS, then share networking through USB cable, Android can share Internet connection for computers, VMware said couldn't connect to the USB device successfully, but later, Android can normally share Internet connection for Guest OS. However, it stuck the Host OS (ArchLinux), e.g., cannot run commands, terminal commands stuck. After the virtual machine is shutdown, Host OS couldn't shutdown normally, it requires long-pressing the power button or physically remove the power.

I took snapshots when Windows11 is installed in the VM, then connected an Android device to that VM, shared Internet connection for that VM, and finally restore a snapshot when the Android device is still sharing network. After restoring a snapshot, it may stuck the Host OS and VMware.
