What are USB drivers?

Every device connected to a computer has a separate driver for correct use of that device. The computer communicates with that device and makes it work for you. The USB (Universal Serial Bus) port of your computer also has a USB driver for this purpose.

By default every operating system has built-in USB driver But accident happens. You may uninstall it by mistake or there may be a hardware change that results in the failure to recognize the USB device plugged into the USB port. In such cases reinstalling the driver can do the job for you.

1. Step Go to desktop and press window + R to open run prompt.
