When a USB device is not recognized on Windows, it can be confusing and frustrating. You plug it in, but nothing happens, and the device doesn’t appear on your computer. This issue is usually caused by minor system or connection problems.
Unplugging the USB device and connecting it again can help refresh the connection. Trying a different USB port is also a good idea, as some ports may not work properly.
Restarting the computer resets system services and often fixes detection issues. Keeping USB drivers updated helps Windows recognize devices correctly.
In many cases, USB problems are easy to solve and don’t require advanced technical knowledge.
