Windows 10: usb stopped working

Hi all, have a problem with usb drivers according to my control panel which says it is fixing the issue and then tells me to reboot but it is not fixed. Keyboard lights up on start but when the first blue window appears it goes off. I can get into the bios ok and the keyboard works there. only one port is working (USB3). as my mouse and keyboard are usb and there is no PS2 port i am kinda cactus at the moment. Been searching for usb drivers for win 10 but not having any luck. Everything was working fine since November until yesterday. would appreciate any help. Regards Alec

USB wired or USB wireless mouse stopped working. Not longer recognized in Windows 10

Hello.

I have had windows 10 on this computer for about two or more years now (I don't really remember when I upgraded from windows 8.1).

Yesterday I powered on my computer and the wireless mouse was no longer working. I tried another mouse, the same, nothing. I realized any mouse I plug in wired or wireless would not get recognized.

In the device manager, it shows under Other Devices with ! mark on it. The update would not work. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling or uninstall -> restart but also nothing.

I tried in the power option to disable fast startup but also nothing.

I tried deleting all USB devices in the USB manager and then restarting, but also nothing.

I have been tooling with this for 3 days it's driving me insane. I can't stand working from the mouse touch pad. It's very impractical.

An hour ago, I took a bluetooth mouse from my brother, and Surprise, it does work. So clearly only USB mice don't work.

I read articles that suggested deleting lower and upper limits in the registry but I could not see any upper limits and lower limit values in there. So I didn't find that method applicable to me unless I was doing it wrong.

It seems that many other people ran into this problem and simply ended up having to reinstall the OS. I really really dont want to do that.

Any ideas how to solve this?

 

Try sfc /scannow (run elevated command prompt)

 

thanks tried that using onscreen keyboard one click at a time and it started doing the scan then gives me "windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation. verification phase got to 38% complete
