Universal Device Client Device Not Working Properly

Following the latest Windows 11 update, my Universal Device Client Device isn't working properly - Windows can't load the driver required (Code 31).

Hi, Dave -

Thank you for the quick response!

My laptop is indeed a Lenovo Yoga and it is the Universal Device Client.

Thank you for steering me in the right direction!

Hi Carter,

I am Dave, I will help you with this.

Please provide more information on this, do you have a Lenovo PC and is that the Universal Device Client you are referring to?

If it is, the best option is to go to the support page for your PC on the Lenovo website to download and re-install that software and drivers from there.

If that is not what you are referring to, please provide some more information on this.
