    Windows update dares to silently reset USB ports ?


    Hi,


    I have unexplained brief USB connection losses with different devices on different computers; apparently mostly shortly after a cold start or resume from sleep etc. Consequences vary from unexpected USB disconnect/connect system sound to more severe things like loss of Remote Desktop Connection or disk I/O error can be problematic during writes.

    To avoid that, I now avoid using files on my external USB disks for several minutes after starting to work.

    After lots of correlation t'shooting I came to the conclusion that Windows would occasionally reset USB connections during background, silent updates.

    Is that true ?????

    :)

    Click next/OK as required to complete installation. Repeat the steps for all Intel USB devices. Finally click on each USB root device and press DEL to delete it, reply YES when asked. After deleting all USB root devices restart the computer.

    I hope this is detailed enough...

    USB ports not working in Windows 10

    Hello ruthives,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    To address your concern, kindly help us with the below questions.

    1. What is the make and model of the computer?
    2. Do you read any error message when you connect the device to the USB port?
    3. Are you facing this issue with any particular USB port or with all the USB ports?
    4. Since when are you facing this issue?

    Your device is kept up to date with the latest features by automatically installing the updates in Windows 10. To narrow down the issue, let's go ahead and follow the below methods and see if it helps.

    Method 1: I would suggest you to follow the steps to diagnose and repair the USB ports from the article -

    Automatically diagnose and fix Windows USB problems.


    Method 2: Update USB controllers.

    • Right click on the Start menu and select Device Manager from the list.
    • Narrow down to Universal Serial Bus controllers and update all the USB drivers.
    • To update the drivers, right click on the each driver and select Update driver.
    • If that doesn't resolve the issue, I would suggest you to uninstall all the USB drivers from the device manager.
    • Reboot the PC and it will automatically pick for the latest drivers for your PC.

    If the issue persists, download and install the latest USB drivers available for your PC build from the
    manufacturer's website and see if it works.

    Hope it helps.
