Windows 10: Find my device not working

Hi. My laptop has been stolen but my microsof account on my laptop has been linked to my phone using the Microsoft authenticator app. I've tried using the find my device option but it says location disabled and 0% battery. Is it that it hasn't been put on yet? Please any suggestions?

  Show Hidden Devices.
• Check for the webcam under Imaging Devices.

USB devices not working


Since my PC was updated to Windows 10 I have been having trouble with USB devices not working. It appears the drivers do not load or do not work. Example is my Saitek rudder pedals. They appear to be fully installed and appear in the device list but they do not work. I go into the device manager and update the driver to the exact same driver and it works.
I plug in my iPhone and it is recognized as an iPhone but appears in the Other Devices with a yellow exclamation. A check and it says there are no drivers. Manually find the drivers and update them and it is good until I pull it out. Next time I plug it in same thing.
Phantom 3 pro wont show the disk drive and have to load in a generic disk drive driver and all good. This list goes on.

I have found no suggestion on the net that help me so far.

Anyone else had this issue and have they solved it?

Thanks.
