    Hey folks!I have this weird issue:Since quite some time my USB 2.0 port is defunct. Never bothered me, as I have a working 3.0 port, too. But now I need it.I don't know when this first occured, but when I tried to uninstall/reinstall via device manager, the controller and hub completely disappeared from the device manager and never came back.Tried a lot already, looked in Bios, tried the old "device manager"-trick, ran several update checks with Asus for my device, with Microsoft, even swapped the USB board in a trial and error effort, tried to install the lates BIOS via Asus not sure if a 20

  2. USB 2 port not working in Windows 10 on Samsung Notebook

    Hi Tomale,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    Since all the USB ports are working and the problem is with the USB 3.0 port in the right side of the laptop, then this issue is with that particular port.

    You can contact the manufacture of the laptop to get it done.

    As a workaround, I suggest you to Run Hardware troubleshooter and check if it helps.

    Follow these steps to run hardware troubleshooter.

    • Type troubleshooting
      in search box.
    • Select view all on the top left pane.
    • Click on Hardware and Devices Troubleshooter and follow the prompts to
      run the troubleshooter.

    Thanks.

    USB 2.0 Ports not working

    USB port not working

    I have an HP Pavilion dv6604nr laptop. I have 3 USB ports, 2 located on the left side and one located on the right side near the power supply port. For some reason, one of the USB ports on the left hand side will not recognize anything that is plugged
    into it. I have done all the steps and suggestions that is posted on this site, and still can't get it to work. The message I get is "The last USB device that was connected has malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it." It shows in the Device Manager
    as Unknown USB Device(Port Reset Failed). When I have a USB device plugged into the non-working port, it shows up in the Devices and Printers folder, but the device does not work. I am at my wits end. Can anyone help me or suggest any other things to try?
    Oh, I am running Windows 10 pro.
