Hi ValChester,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

I understand how something like this can really try your patience. However, let’s try to fix this issue with the following steps.

It is an indication of corrupted loaded drivers. By default, Device Manager only displays drivers of
connected devices, sometimes windows can get "confused" with the old drivers in the system. This can be resolved by clearing up the old drivers and installing the generic drivers.

Could you please help me with the below questions:

• Do you get any error message when you start the application?
• Did you connect the device to another computer and check if it is working?
  

Step 1: I
suggest you to run the troubleshooter provided by Microsoft on Automatically
diagnose and fix Windows USB problems.

Step 2: Change settings.

To save power, Windows will automatically shuts down the power to USB ports. To prevent this, I suggest you to follow these steps:

1. Press Windows and R key together on your Keyboard.
   
2. Type devmgmt.msc and hit enter.
3. Expand Universal serial bus controller.
4. Double click on USB Root hub device.
5. Select Power management tab.
6. Uncheck the option Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.
   
7. Click on Ok and close the device manager. Check if the device is working fine now.

I would also suggest you to follow the troubleshooting steps mentioned in the article
HP PCs - Troubleshooting USB Connections (Windows 10, 8).


Step 3: Uninstall the driver.

1. Press Windows and R key together on your Keyboard.
   
2. Type devmgmt.msc and hit enter.
3. Expand Universal serial bus controller.
4. Check if any of the driver has yellow triangle next to it.
5. Right click on the driver and uninstall it.
6. Unplug the device from the PC and restart the computer.
7. Plug in the device back in a different port and check if it works.
   

I would suggest you to install the Chipset drivers from the computer’s manufacturer website. For more information, check the Microsoft article on
How to: Install
and Update Hardware Drivers in Windows 10by Andre Da Costa.


Hope it helps.
