how do you know/choose which driver to download from the options? (None of them seem to match the brand on the malfunctioning device)

[@tvenergyproductions1]

When I try to run Device Diagnostics it says Windows Online Troubleshooting is disabled. How do I enable it?

[@googleuser5563]

What if you can't find the driver online... or even the company website for the device?

[@cretiephocis3531]

This thing's doesnt work to me idk what to do :(

[@rollthers3157]

The "Uninstall Device" method is the easiest, quickest and most likely way to fix the issue. At 3:29 the video explains this. Or just delete any driver with a yellow triangle and then scan for changes. Problem solved. 😀

my goodnes it takes 0:50 and it fix haha thanks windowschimp huhu haha

[@corediagram8016]

This is a problem with Windows not wanting to use an external driver. Anything except companies it recognizes. I know this because I went to power and sleep options then advanced settings and changed the USB selective suspend settings to disabled. It worked the first time. After 1 week, this no longer works so it is deliberate. If you want to blame someone. Blame it on Microsoft. This means you can only use branded USB cables, branded USB chargers, etc. Fuck the users who can't afford to always buy branded stuff.

[@qureshiabraham]

@@reyy2051 then most probably it might be internal electric malfunction which is causing it, sometimes high/ unstable / electric voltage or earthing issue may cause mini component to get exhausted, if you have checked all available troubleshoot and in different pc and laptop if showing same most probably it is out of life.
