Windows 10: W10 update / Microsoft - WPD - 2/22/2016 12:00:00 AM - 5.2.5326.4762

Device Manager identifies my graphics as "Nvidia NVS 310". It was not sold by Nvidia, but HP. HP have re-arranged the components compared to Nvidias version in order to get a lower profile (probably to fit in some compact HP PC-models).

I built the system myself from a Shuttle barebone. There was little room and I needed a card like this to support 2 pcs. of 2560x1440 monitors. The intel CPU of the day (it is around 4 years ago I think) just suppported one HDMI monitor.

 

What I posted is what the update is for. The link just gives you more details about it. *Smile

 

Damn .. now this update also became available on the unaffected PC. Exactly same problem with the phone after installing it.

GRRR! *Sad

 

Okay *Smile

 

I don't have a "portable" Windows, so my guess is I don't need the update. First time I've seen this type of update. Don't think I'll mess with it.

 

You do realise that Visual Studio 2017 came out today? Did you install that (or something from it like the redistributable)?

I think the two things are probably related.

Normally these strange events (like this update) can be explained by something you did. I'm guessing you did that thing today. For example.....you might have plugged in your phone after installing Visual Studio 2017.

 

I decided to install the update and now i can't access my phone from my PC. It is charging though. In device manager is shown as MTP and it can't find drivers for it.

What the hell was i even thinking...?

P.S. I checked windows update history and it says that this same update is installed and then that it failed installing. Now it asks me to install again and it gives me error 0x800f0217.

 

Hello @Moutro, *Smile

If you like, see if this below may help for this issue:

1. Open Device Manager (devmgmt.msc).

2. Right click on your phone listed in Device Manager, and click on "Update driver".

3. Click on "Browse my computer for driver software" in wizard.

4. Click on "Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer"

5. Check the "Show compatible hardware" box, select "MTP USB Device", and click on "Next".

6. Hopefully, Windows will be able to successfully install a working driver for it.

 

This driver also popped up on my system today.

System does not recognize my Lumia Phone anymore (shows as Unknown Device)

Same thing on my Windows 10 Tablet, same problem with phone there.

 

Hello @Poldi, and welcome to Ten Forums. *Smile

What I posted above should work for you as well.

 

OMG it worked. You are a king among men *Wink

Great Forum

 

DO NOT INSTALL! It will break your phone connection, and maybe some other things too. Microsoft are not giving any help whatsoever and I've just spent ages trying to get rid of it. I used the above fix, and now have y Windows Phone back, many thanks!

 

Have you tried the procedure from post 21? - W10 update / Microsoft - WPD - 2/22/2016 12:00:00 AM - 5.2.5326.4762

 

Yep that cures the missing phone problem. I had two MTP USB ones as well as the rogue MTP one.

 

Thank you Brink, that worked!!!

I also restarted my PC but the update is still there. Windows update history says it's installed and then that it's failed.... I'm just gonna hide it and get rid of that crap.

Oh and microsoft, thank you too.
