    Description

      Add this line the main() function of any project:

      qDebug() << "Devices:" << QInputDevice::devices();
      

      This seems to produce correct information on macOS 13.3.1 and Ubuntu 22.04, but returns an empty list on Windows 10 22H2 (physical machine).

       

      Notes

      I do have the following devices plugged in, which are all recognized by Windows Device Manager:

      • A very basic wired USB keyboard
      • A Logitech wireless dongle, that is paired to one keyboard and one mouse

      Unplugging either one of the USB connectors and rerunning the app makes no difference.
