Troubleshooting USB Device

• Make sure that you have the latest software installed on your computer because if the software doesn’t have the latest components then the devices can cause problems. 
• Visit the manufacturer’s website to see any latest drivers for the device.
• Unplug the faulty USB device and plug it back.
• Unplug all the USB devices from the computer such as USB drive, USB keyword, USB mouse etc and then plug them back one by one.
• If it’s a new USB device then replace it with another and if it’s an old one then figure out the changes that you did just before the device stopped working.  Did you install any new hardware or software?
• Check the USB device with all the USB ports of the computer and see if it works with any port or not?
• Check the USB device with the other computer and see if it works fine with it
