  4. controller is not working on my device

    Device not recognized by Windows 10

    Hi Jan,

    To isolate the issue, have you tried connecting other devices to your laptop?

    If other USB devices connect without a problem, we may need to troubleshoot the USB itself. If not, we suggest that you uninstall the USB controller in Device Manager and check if it helps.

    Here are the steps:

    • Open Device Manager.
    • Find Universal Serial Bus controllers and expand it.
    • Right-click the first driver in the list, click Uninstall, and then
      OK.
    • Repeat all the steps for all the drivers in the list.
    • Restart your PC.

    Do update us with the outcome.
