  1. USB ports not working after Windows update


    I had a update last night for windows 10 on my desktop, made me do it as I could not turn off my computer without it starting, I get up in the morning and get on, the usb ports work for 5 minutes at most before they stop working, all of them worked fine until this update, I have no internet so I have to use my phone, cant use the keyboard, the light of the mouse is on but its not moving, someone please help me with this, I am ticked off as it is and will be more so the more it stays like this.
