USB Docking Station stopped functioning on USB3 Ports

Hello all, I have been trying to fix this issues for weeks now and I have no clue how to continue. I am trying to get several different USB Docking Stations over USB3 to work in my computer with no luck. The exact error description is as follows: USB Docking Station incl. Ethernet, HDMI Displays and several other ports works fine over Legacy USB Ports. The speed is very limited due to the limits of USB itself. As soon as I connect the dock to any USB 3+ (also the USB Type-C) connecter, the displays wont work at all. Everything else on the dock works fine just the displays dont work. The strange thing is that it used to work a couple month ago. All of a sudden, the dock stopped working on USB 3 connects (the blue ones). But to me it looks like the ports have not issue. USB Sticks etc. still work fine. Another USB Dock shows the same behavior so the dock seems to be okay. I have attached a screenshot of how it looks like when the dock is connected to USB2. The marked entries in the screenshot are simply not present, when connected to USB3. What I've done so far:

• Upgrade literally all drivers to the latest version (incl. chipset drivers)
• Upgrade Bios to the latest version
• Tested several docks (they work as expected on my second laptop)
• Tried all USB ports incl. USB Type-C and front panel USB's
• Checked UsbTreeView to see whats happening. The screens are simply not there. My dock uses DisplayLink technology

Here are my specs:

• ASRock B450m Pro4 Mainboard
• AMD Ryzen 3 2200G CPU (Raven Ridge)
• 16GB DDR4 Memory, running at 3000MHz
• NVidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti
• Running Windows 10 64bit

I am happy for all ideas and suggestions on that issue. Thanks in advance, Beadyfrog

Kensington Launches the SD4700P Universal USB-C and USB 3.0 Docking Station

Kensington understands that no business wants to be tied to USB 3.0 technology as it is being replaced by faster and better protocols, while at the same time recognizing that it isn't practical for an organization to incur the expense and loss of productivity to replace every legacy device with one that supports USB-C. So we are pleased to announce the release of the SD4700P Universal USB-C and USB 3.0 Docking Station (K38240, SRP $219.99), which gives organizations full support for both USB-C and USB 3.0 devices from laptops using both Windows and macOS.

"At Kensington, we value the trust that consumers and organizations have placed in us since we introduced the first Universal Docking Station. As technologies improve, we are committed to providing our customers with new solutions that leverage the latest enhancements to boost productivity and performance," says Fred Wu, Global Product Manager Kensington.

Simple and Secure
With Simple Set-up, deploying a universal dock has never been easier. It enables a user to simply connect the Docking Station to the USB port on their laptop, and then they can quickly transfer audio, video, data and power (supported USB-C devices with power delivery function only), keeping their workspace clean and clutter-free. Since it has been fully tested to support a variety of Windows and macOS laptops, the Docking Stations easily accommodate roaming computer environments and flexible workspaces where multiple laptop users with different requirements need to share a single docking station.

With Zero Footprint Mounting organizations have the option to attach the dock to the back of any VESA-compatible external monitor display to keep the workspace clean and clutter free.

Powerful Connectivity
The Docking Station connects to the single USB-C or USB 3.0 port on a laptop and gives the connected user access to:

• DisplayPort++/HDMI to provide flexible video connections with support up to 2560x1600 for a single monitor or 2048x1152 for dual monitors using DisplayLink.
• 6 USB Ports extend the productivity capabilities of today's thin laptops via one USB-C port, and five USB 3.0 ports, one of which is a 2.1A fast-charging port to power up a tablet or smartphone.
• 135W Power Supply Adapter to provide ample power for the Universal Docking Station and up to 60W of power for devices connected using Power Delivery (PD) USB-C.
• Combo 3.5mm Headphone and Microphone Jack lets users easily connect their favorite headset.
• Gigabit Ethernet Port provides a secure and reliable 1Gb wired networking connection between computers for faster downloads from corporate intranet or internet.
