  1. Only one USB work at a time


    Good afternoon I am attempting to connect my laptop to a bigger monitor display, for this, I am using a USB to HDMI multi-monitor adapter, I also use a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. I've tried them both individually and the ports work fine with each product but not at the same time. How can I resolve this issue?

    :)

  2. USB 3.0 is not working

    I have tried below all the steps bu my both USB 3.0 are not working.

    Please suggest more to add on.

    I understand that the USB port is not working. The issue may arise if the currently loaded USB driver has become unstable or corrupt or if your PC requires an update for issues that may conflict with a USB device and Windows. This may also occur if your
    USB controllers may have become unstable or corrupt. So, I suggest you to try the following steps and check if the issue persists.

    Method 1:

    Remove and reinstall all USB controllers.

    Open Device Manager by pressing Windows key + X and select device manager from the list. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    In the list of hardware categories, find and expand Universal Serial Bus controllers.
    Right-click every device under the Universal Serial Bus controllers node, and then click Uninstall to remove them one at a time.
    Restart the computer, and let the USB controllers get reinstalled.
    Plug in the removable USB device, and then test to make sure that the issue is resolved.
    Method 2

    The issue could be if the drivers are not updated or get corrupted. So, try to install all of the Windows updates available and if issue persists, try to update the drivers by following the steps provided in the article mentioned below.

    Update drivers in Windows 10

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-in...566-b983195752c1/update-drivers-in-windows-10

    Method 3

    If issue persists try the steps provided to uninstall the USB device from Device Manager, uninstall the device drivers from program list and then download the latest drivers from the manufacturer's website.

    Step 1:

    Uninstall the Device from Device Manager

    Open Device Manger by clicking on Windows key + X and selecting Device manager from the list.
    Expand the USB section.
    Find the USB device.
    Right click USB and select Uninstall.
    Select the check box delete the driver software for this device.
    Reboot the computer after uninstall process has finished.
    Step 2:

    Uninstall the Device Drivers from Program List in Control Panel

    Click on start, select Control Panel
    Now click on Programs and select Programs and Features.
    Find the USB.
    Right click USB driver and select Uninstall.
    Reboot the computer after the uninstall process has finished.
    Step 3:

    Download and install the latest drivers for the USB from the manufacturer website

    Hope this would help. If issue still persists post back with current status of your computer and result of proposed suggestion, we will be happy to assist you.

  3. Windows10 needs to boot twice every time to make USB working

    Hi Ho,

    Sorry for the delayed reply.

    I understand your point, however it may fix the issue, if it could be due to USB drivers.

    • What is the make and model of the computer?
    • Did you make any changes prior to this issue?
    I suggest you to try the steps provided in the previous post and get back to us with the results.

    Thank you.

  4. Only one USB work at a time

    Windows 10 infinite restart black screen


    The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

    Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.
