Windows 10: USB-C to VGA not working

My laptop (asus Vivobook 15) does not have a VGA outlet and my monitor only has VGA cable. I bought a USB-C mobile dock with both HDMI and VGA outlet, and the HDMI outlet works but the VGA does not detect any monitor. It's supposed to be plug and play (no driver installation needed). What might be the issue?

USB c to VGA adaptor

I have just purchased a Lenovo 320s Ideapad to use at work for presentations through a projector. Unfortunately all the projectors are VGA input. The Lenovo does not have VGA output so I purchased an unbranded USB C to VGA adaptor. I cant get the adaptor
to do anything at all. There is no reaction from the laptop when I plug the adaptor in. Do I need to install some drivers to get it to work on Win 10?

Based on the details that you've shared, we'd recommend performing the following to uninstall and reinstall the USB drivers. To do this, you can perform the following:

• Search and launch Device Manager using Cortana.
• Locate and collapse the Universal Serial Bus controllers.
• Right-click on a listed driver and then select Properties.
• Under the Driver tab, click on Uninstall Device.
• Repeat steps 3 and 4 to each of the drivers listed under Universal Serial Bus controllers.

Note: Restarting the device will reinstall the USB drivers.
