Zwavejs2mqtt on windows machine

Configuration Z-Wave
1

I’d like to move (almost) my complete home automation from my NAS to a NUC running windows.

Docker is no problem, but passing USB devices to a container seems to be impossible in windows.
deCONZ is running as a native windows application, but I have no idea how to get zwavejs2mqtt running.

Does anybody know how to solve this problem?

Your options are limited to:

  1. Running a different type of virtualization software such as Virtual Box or VMware Workstation so you can passthrough the USB device
  2. Move away from Windows on the NUC
  3. Share the USB device on the network using USB over IP software (some options are already discussed on this forum, otherwise you can find some different tools on the following site:

Hope this helps!

I switched to Ubuntu on the NUC.

But due to connection problems between my Conbee II and deCONZ, I also said ‘goodbye’ to deCONZ and ‘hello’ to mosquitto and zigbee2mqtt.
