Windows 10: I uninstalled the USB root hub and it won't reinstall.

I know what I did was stupid, but let me explain why I did it. Basically I was having issues with my windows mixed reality headset and decided to uninstall it to see if I just had to reinstall the driver. However, when i restarted it didn't reinstall the driver. So here I am, with no functioning USB ports. Anyone know any fixes?

Thanks!

USB HUB

Hi,

Incompatible USB hub driver is one of the possible reasons why this issue is happening. We recommend uninstalling the USB Root Hub driver and see if it helps. Follow the stepes below:

• Open Device Manager.
  
• Double-click Universal Serial Bus controllers to expand.
  
• Right-click USB Root Hub, then click Properties.
  
• Go to the Driver tab.
  
• Click Uninstall.
  
• Restart your computer.
  

Note: Restarting your computer will automatically reinstall a generic driver for your computer. Also, we suggest connecting your USB hub while performing the steps.

If the issue still persists, let's disable the USB selective suspend settings thru Power Options to resolve the issue. Follow the steps below:

• Type Power Options in the search box, then press Enter.
• Locate USB settings > USB selective suspend settings.
• Select Disable.

Keep us in the loop with the result.

I would try uninstalling the devices in control panel and rebooting as suggested, under keyboard, under Human Interface Devices listed ones as USB ROOT and Universal Serial Bus Controllers all listed there as USB root hub, USB hub and USB Mass storage only.These will get reinstalled on reboot or when the device is connected.

Other PC operating system was ?
