What To Do if Your USB Ports Aren’t Working
If your USB ports suddenly stop working, there are a number of potential causes. The most common cause is a driver issue, but there could also be a hardware problem. To troubleshoot the problem, you can try a few different things. First, try restarting your computer. This will sometimes resolve driver issues. If that doesn’t work, try unplugging all of the devices from your USB ports and then restarting your computer. This will refresh the drivers and may fix the problem. If you’re still having trouble, you can try reinstalling your USB drivers. To do this, open Device Manager and expand the “Universal Serial Bus controllers” section. Right-click on each driver and select “Uninstall.” Once they’re all uninstalled, restart your computer and they should automatically be reinstalled. If you’re still having trouble after trying all of these steps, it’s possible that you have a hardware issue. In this case, you’ll need to take your computer to a repair shop to have it checked out.
