Blue Snowball not recognized by PC

I used my brand new Blue Snowball about a week ago, worked great. But, I plug it in now and my PC, running windows 10, does not even recognize it is there. No error messages cause it does not see it. I have tried everything I can find on the web, to no
avail. It does not show under recording devices, it's not in Device Manager. The red light is on, on the mic, but my PC does not see it.

Blue Snowball USB Microphone doesn't work after upgrading to Win10

I had this same problem tonight using a Blue Snowball I bought about 4 years ago. I hadn't used the PC for recording since I upgraded to Windows 10 but tonight I was using Audacity to record something and it would not recognize the Snowball. In the device
manager it showed the Snowball driver and an error message underneath.

Maybe the Force is with me tonight, but I simply uninstalled the driver, unplugged the Snowball, refreshed and plugged it back in. Same error message. Went through those steps one more time and it loaded without the error message and is recording just fine.

Now under Audacity it used to say "Snowball" in the recording device where now it says "Microphone (2 - USB Audio Class). But whatever, it's working and I didn't even have to kick the tower.
