Windows 10: USB devices randomly not being detected

Hi, I have a raizer seiren X mic that is randomly not being detected by Windows whenever I restart my PC or after a shut down. I don't seem to be having this issue with other devices I've tested, so I suspect that it is a Windows 11 issue and not a USB port issue and I've also never had these issues on Windows 10. Once I unplug the mic and replug it, it gets detected again. Does any know if there are any possible fixes for this?

:)

 

Windows phone is not detecting

Hi Vijay,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

I suggest you to connect the phone to another computer and check if it gets detected. Also, check if the phone gets detected by connecting with a different USB cable.

I suggest you to run the Hardware and Devices troubleshooter by following the steps below:

• Click on the Start button, and type “Troubleshooting” on the search bar.
  
• Click on “hardware and devices”.
• A pop-up will appear, click on the “Next” button and follow the on-screen prompts for troubleshooting.
  

Hope the information is helpful. Keep us posted on the status for further assistance.

 

[SOLVED] Windows 8.1 Not Detecting USB Devices

It is possible you may need to run VIAO update, after your upgrade to 8.1, to check for new drivers and patches.

Edit: Also, have you gone to device manager and check the item in the menu "show hidden devices".
See if their are any problems, uninstall any usb devices, and their associated listings in the other sections of the device manager that should not be there.

If need be... try GhostBuster to remove any ghosted devices you need/want gone.

You may need to do a refresh of Windows 8.1 as a last resort.

 

USB device not detected

Hi Linda,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

To analyze and for us to know the root cause of the issue, please help us with the following details:

• What is the version of Windows installed on the machine?
  
  (Press ‘Win + R’ keys on the keyboard together to open the Run dialog box and type
  winver in the Run box to know the same.)
  
• Does the USB device work on other computers?
  
• Does the issue persist when you plug the USB device in to a different port?
  

If the USB device works fine on other computers and you determine the USB device is not faulty, the issue could be due to any of the following reasons:

• The currently loaded USB driver has become unstable or corrupt.
  
• Your PC requires an update for issues that may conflict with a USB external hard drive and Windows.
  
• Windows may be missing other important updates hardware or software issues.
  
• Your USB controllers may have become unstable or corrupt.
  
• Your external drive may be entering selective suspend.
  
• Your PC motherboard may need updated drivers.
  

You may run the
