No PnP detection - is this a bug?

[bbos]

Hallo, when hwinfo is running (x64 under win10 - latest version) and I insert a USB stick, hwinfo does not display the new hardware.
Is the hw scan only performed on startup of the program?

Thanks for any useful info.

Yes, the scan is performed only during startup.

Could you change this? Or give the option to rescan/refresh while the program is open.
This would be useful in some situations, eg while troubleshooting/testing USB devices.
Best regards

Such option is under consideration, but I cannot give you an ETA as the implementation is a bit difficult.

OK thanks, hopefully you find the time...
