Windows 10: A device attached to this system is not function properly & Unable to create new document.

Hello,So, this problem has persisted for the last month. I didn't really notice an issue before I tried to download something and the .exe refused to open, giving me the error code: "A device attached to this system is not functioning properly." I looked up the solution online and general consensus is that an IOS device is not connecting properly to my computer. Problem is, my phone was not plugged in at the time, and to my recollection, hadn't been plugged into my computer in the past few months. Nonetheless, I plugged my phone and went through all the steps that were recommenced and still no

Unable to attach a document

Just purchased an HP Spectre X360 last night and am unable to even attach a document to an email in Gmail....I have switched from Edge to Chrome and still after 4 hours I cannot attach a file. Have never had a problem in the past with Windows 7 Pro. I
have restarted the system multiple times and still cannot attach. Wishing now i had taken my old laptop somewhere and had them try and save it instead of buying new. Any suggestions before i take it back or throw it out the window?

 

Device attached to the system is not functioning (photo transfer)

I have a new Samsung Galaxy A71. I attached it to my computer by USB and it pulls up the phone on the computer. However, when I attempt to transfer any photos I receive the following error:

Device attached to the system is not functioning

I have rebooted my system, all of my updates appear to be installed, ran a system check and still I cannot resolve this issue.

Samsung tells me that since my phone can be found on the system, it is a Windows issue for the transfer. Any suggestions. Thank you.
