Hi Franz,

Yes I saw that link earlier but didn't understand it.

The link states ". . . Simply insert your USB drive, right-click on the
desired qube in the Qubes VM Manager list, click *Attach/detach block
devices*, and select your desired action and device."

That is what I always did on my old Qubes 2 system and it worked.  It
worked on my new Qubes 3.2 system until I updated it.  After updating, the
"Attach / Detach block devices" was "greyed out" which prevented me from
selecting it.

I suspect this is a simple fix that I overlooked but I would appreciate any
help.

Thank you.
