Windows 10: Issues with Network adapters and Storage controllers after updating Windows

Any update since october 1909 I believe makes my network adapters, a storage controller, and a usb controller fail


The 3 devices are:


-Intel R 1211 Gigabit Network Connection


-Surface NVM controller / samsung nvme controller tried both - the odd thing about this is I have 2 identical drives with the same driver and only the one which is not my C:\ drive fails


-Asmedia USB 3.1 eXtensible Host controller - 1.10 microsoft / AMD USB 3.10 eXtensible Host controller - 1.10 microsoft tried both


They all read error code 10 in device manager


I tried a program meant to find fixes for devices outputting an error code, but it used an online database so..

I tried adding a pcie wifi card I borrowed to connect to the internet but that also would fail with error code 10 after updating.


The last thing I tried is making a copy of their drivers and replacing the ones being used with my copy after updating but that didn't work either.


Any ideas? Thanks,
