  1. Device Manager > Portable Devices, Phone properties reading "this device cannot start. Code 10"


    I was trying to tether my phone's mobile data to my computer and I kept giving me the message "This device cannot start. Code 10".


    For 5 hours I was trying go diagnose the problem thinking that the "Remote NDIS Compatible Devices" driver was bad. Until I realized a couple minutes ago that when my "USB Tethering" was off, my phone under "Portable Devices" still had a yellow exclamation mark and the error "This device cannot start. Code 10".


    Now that i know it's not my Remote NDIS Drive, what driver do I need to fix? I tried updating this driver and it said it was uptodate


    Computer: Lenovo ThinkCentre M70e

    OS: Windows 10

    Phone: Motorola G7 Power

  2. Device Manager Portable Devices: This device cannot start (Code 10)

    I was trying to figure out why only one of my idevices was showing my on my computer. I checked device manager and under portable devices I see Apple iPhone. Then when I plug in my iPad it shows up under USB devices as Apple Mobile Device USB Composite Device and it has a yellow exclamation point. WHen I try to update the driver thats when I get the Code 10 message. I disconnect both devices and plug in the iPad 1st. I look under portable devices and I see Apple iPad. Then I plug in the iPhone and it's listed USB devices with the exact same listing the iPad had. No matter what I do I cannot get both to appear under portable devices at the same time. Whatever device gets plugged in 1st appropriately shows up under portable devices. When I plug in the a 2nd device thats where the problems start. Has anyone ever heard of such a bizarre problem? I've swapped USB slots and cables and keep on getting the same thing. I am at a complete loss on this. *Sad

    It will probably be linked to one/some of your copying (CD/DVD burning) programs. If my memory serves me correct, pcoufin is used when a virtual drive is created on your system.
