Windows 10: Why does any USB hub/docking station connected to my PC cause all other USB ports to start...

So, it takes me a while to narrow this down each time it happens, but over time I've tried five USB hubs/docking stations. Sometimes I download the accompanying driver, sometimes I don't, sometimes there isn't one.Everything is fine at first. But then, over the next days/weeks, I start having issues with my USB ports and, when the dock also has display outputs, my HDMI/Displayport ports. My external USB drives will stop being recognized, my mouse and keyboard will cut out, plugging new USB peripherals in such as controllers sometimes aren't recognized at all.Each time, I drive myself crazy try

USB Docking Station stopped functioning on USB3 Ports

Hello all, I have been trying to fix this issues for weeks now and I have no clue how to continue. I am trying to get several different USB Docking Stations over USB3 to work in my computer with no luck. The exact error description is as follows: USB Docking Station incl. Ethernet, HDMI Displays and several other ports works fine over Legacy USB Ports. The speed is very limited due to the limits of USB itself. As soon as I connect the dock to any USB 3+ (also the USB Type-C) connecter, the displays wont work at all. Everything else on the dock works fine just the displays dont work. The strange thing is that it used to work a couple month ago. All of a sudden, the dock stopped working on USB 3 connects (the blue ones). But to me it looks like the ports have not issue. USB Sticks etc. still work fine. Another USB Dock shows the same behavior so the dock seems to be okay. I have attached a screenshot of how it looks like when the dock is connected to USB2. The marked entries in the screenshot are simply not present, when connected to USB3. What I've done so far:

• Upgrade literally all drivers to the latest version (incl. chipset drivers)
• Upgrade Bios to the latest version
• Tested several docks (they work as expected on my second laptop)
• Tried all USB ports incl. USB Type-C and front panel USB's
• Checked UsbTreeView to see whats happening. The screens are simply not there. My dock uses DisplayLink technology

Here are my specs:

• ASRock B450m Pro4 Mainboard
• AMD Ryzen 3 2200G CPU (Raven Ridge)
• 16GB DDR4 Memory, running at 3000MHz
• NVidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti
• Running Windows 10 64bit

I am happy for all ideas and suggestions on that issue. Thanks in advance, Beadyfrog

 

Cannot Update, Phone connected to usb hub or laptop docking station

no one here can help in that ////For optimum connectivity your USB cable should be connected directly to the PC, and not via USB hub, USB keyboard or laptop docking station". But i have connected my usb directly to the PC USB not through hub etc.
