To uninstall USB drivers, navigate to Device Manager, click the View menu, and enable Show Hidden Devices. Find the type of device you're dealing with, then expand the menu, right-click your device, and select Uninstall. In the confirmation dialog, click Delete the driver software for this device > OK.

If the PC has USB 3.0 ports and is running a version of Windows earlier than Windows 8, the host controller drivers are provided by the PC manufacturer. If you need to reinstall those drivers, you must get them from the manufacturer.

In Windows 8, the Microsoft-provided set of USB 3.0 drivers (USB driver stack) work with most host controllers. Microsoft USB 3.0 driver stack does not work with the Fresco Logic FL1000 controller. To determine if you have an FL1000 controller, open Device Manager and expand Universal Serial Bus controllers. View the controller properties by selecting and holding (or right-clicking) the controller node. On the Details tab, select Hardware Ids property in the list. If the hardware ID starts with PCI\VEN_1B73&DEV_1000, it is the FL1000. For that controller, download and install drivers from your PC or controller card manufacturer.

A different set of binaries is loaded for each type of host controller. It's important to understand that the USB driver stack that Windows loads correlates to the type of host controller, not to the connected device's speed.

If the PC's USB 2.0 ports use a companion controller, the host controller to which the port is routed depends on device speed. For example, a low speed device connects through a UHCI or an OHCI controller, and uses the USBUHCI or USBOHCI driver. The PC routes a high speed device to an EHCI controller, therefore, Windows uses the USBEHCI driver.

Different device speeds do not determine the driver that is loaded for the controller. However, different device speeds might determine which controller is used. The controller always uses the same driver.

If you are writing a device driver, the USBView tool, included in the Windows Driver Kit (WDK), is very useful. For the Windows 8 WDK, Microsoft updated USBView to display SuperSpeed USB information. You can use this tool to determine whether or not your device is operating at SuperSpeed. This image shows a USB 3.0 device operating at SuperSpeed in USBView.

If you are a device driver developer, the USB driver stack exposes a new IOCTL that is called IOCTL_USB_GET_NODE_CONNECTION_INFORMATION_EX_V2, which you can use to query speed information for USB 3.0 devices.

All existing client drivers should continue work, as is, when a low, full, or high-speed device is connected to a USB 3.0 port. In Windows 8, we have ensured compatibility with existing client drivers.

The USB 3.0 driver stack maintains IRQL levels, caller context, and error status; retry frequency and timing when interacting with devices, and more to make sure existing drivers continue to work. It is still very important to test.

In Windows 7 and earlier version of the operating systems, the USB 3.0 driver stack is provided by third-party. Therefore, we highly recommend that you test your driver to work with third party USB driver stacks.

For Windows 8, Microsoft includes a new mass storage class driver, Uaspstor.sys which uses the UAS protocol. Because streams is new to USB 3.0, so Uaspstor.sys can only use streams when the hardware supports streams (a SuperSpeed USB device is connected to an xHCI host controller). The driver also includes support for software streams, so it can also load for devices operating at high-speed, regardless of the host type.

If you connect a mass storage device to Windows 8 and that device supports UAS, Windows loads Uaspstor.sys. In some cases, there might be known issues with hardware streams on a specific xHCI host controller or known issues with a device's UAS protocol implementation. In those cases, Windows falls back to the BOT protocol and loads the Usbstor.sys driver instead.

*Special instructions are necessary to load this driver because this driver might have been released later than the operating system. Windows class drivers might not support all of the features that are described in a DWG class specification. In this case, the driver does not load based on class match. For additional details on implemented features within a class specification, see the WDK documentation.

The setup class USB (ClassGuid = 36fc9e60-c465-11cf-8056-444553540000) is reserved only for USB host controllers and USB hubs, and must not be used for other device categories. Using this setup class incorrectly may cause the device driver to fail Windows logo testing.

The only alternative available in Windows XP and later operating systems is to support USB Selective Suspend. This feature lets a driver suspend a USB device that it controls when the device becomes idle, even though the system itself remains in a fully operational power state (S0). Selective Suspend is especially powerful if all USB function drivers support it. If even one driver does not support it, the CPU cannot enter C3. For additional information on Selective Suspend, see the WDK.

This driver can selectively suspend devices on computers that are running Windows XP Service Pack 2 and later versions of Windows. The driver requires the Bluetooth radio to set the self-powered and remote wake bits in the configuration descriptor. The driver selectively suspends (D2) the Bluetooth radio when no active Bluetooth connections exist.

This driver can selectively suspend an HID device. It is your responsibility to trigger the remote wake signal on all device state changes. To enable Selective Suspend in the HID stack, the SelectiveSuspendEnabled registry value must be enabled for the specific VID+PID of the device. For examples, see Input.inf.

This driver can selectively suspend (D3) storage devices on systems that support Windows 8 Connected Standby, when those systems go into Connected Standby. Like HID, there is a registry override to enable selective suspend on all Windows 8 systems.

Note Because Windows 2000 and Windows XP were released before USB 2.0 hardware was available, the drivers were released for those operating systems in the service packs. To install drivers:

Although it might still be possible to load Usbhub.sys as the parent driver for the composite device on these and later versions of Windows, Microsoft does not recommend it because it might cause hardware compatibility errors. You should use Usbccgp.sys instead.

A composite USB device - also referred to as a multifunction USB device - exposes multiple functions, each of which can be treated as an independent device. The system loads the USB generic parent driver, Usbccgp.sys, to serve as the parent driver for eaech of the device's functions. The USB generic parent driver enumerates the composite device's functions as though they were separate USB devices and then creates a PDO and constructs a device stack for each function.

Write a filter driver that supports detection of chargers, if the function controller uses the in-box Synopsys and ChipIdea drivers. If you are writing a client driver for a proprietary function controller, charger/attach detection is integrated in the client driver by implementing EVT_UFX_DEVICE_PROPRIETARY_CHARGER_SET_PROPERTY, EVT_UFX_DEVICE_PROPRIETARY_CHARGER_RESET, and EVT_UFX_DEVICE_DETECT_PROPRIETARY_CHARGER.

Those operations are handled by USB function class extension (UFX)/client driver pair and a filter driver that is loaded as a lower filter in the USB function device stack. The driver manage USB charging starting from USB port detection to notifying the battery stack when it can begin charging and the maximum amount of current the device can draw.

When a USB port is attached to the device, the client driver gets a notified either by the lower filter driver or an interrupt. At this time, the client driver performs port detection by communicating with the USB hardware and reports the port type to UFX. Alternately, it can request the filter driver. In that case, the filter driver coordinates with the USB hardware to perform USB port detection and returns the detected port type to the client driver and the client driver passes it to UFX.

Based on the port type, UFX determines the maximum amount of current that the device can draw and sends that information to the Charging Aggregation Driver (CAD). CAD validates the information. If the current is valid, CAD sends a request to the battery class driver to start charging up to the specified maximum current. The battery class driver forwards the charging request to the battery miniclass driver for processing. If the charging request specified that a proprietary charger was attached and the battery miniclass handles proprietary chargers, the miniclass driver can attempt to charge with a maximum current that it determines is appropriate. Otherwise, the battery miniclass can only charge up to the maximum current that is specified by CAD.

Your PC may also be the root cause of the USB descriptor failure. Possible causes may be a bad sector in the Windows OS, outdated drivers on your computer, or non-functional USB ports. Trying out another PC may help arrest the situation. 2ff7e9595c
