[FIX] Windows Encountered A Problem Installing The Driver Software For Your Device

After resetting my Windows 10 PC, none of my USB ports were working. I only had ad ps/2 keyboard that I was able to use. This method worked perfectly and all my USB ports are back up and running. One thing I did prior to finding this post was to restart the computer by holding the shift key and then pressing restart. Then using F7 through the advanced startup options I was able to disable driver singing. Not sure if that made a difference. Anyways, thanks Kapil!! I spent hours looking for a solution to this and you were able to provide it

you re great! really easy way to solve this problem. i downloaded lots of programme for this problem but i didnt get any solve.. thank you so much for this :)) god bless you man

Thanks for the info but I’m still getting an error which says “Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it.”

Any other suggestions?

I did the same thing and it isn’t working

I have spent hours trying to fix this. Microsoft assistance was not helpful. Found this today after countless searches. Fixed it first time.

Kapil – Thank you for the fix my friend it worked like a champ!!!1

Thank you so much! After once changing a new laptop for another new laptop and now after having this one, shy of two months, the audio stopped. Went through chat with LG and I was directed here. After trying your plan B, it worked immediately. Now I can continue with my Español lessons. Muchas gracias!

This worked perfectly. I had a computer crash recently and I was having all kinds of problems with drivers. I could not even get a Microsoft branded wireless mouse installed until I found this article. I realize Im am a year behind, but if you see this comment can you explain why this failure occurs? I would think it should direct itself to this folder so Im curious if its just code error, maybe something I did or what. I thought it was me adding a 500GB SSD drive maybe, but the computer has run with that for the last year with no issue until it crashed. Funny the whole thing actually crashed when I was pairing a bluetooth Xbox remote in the first place.

Thank You So Much. It’s Very Helpful

Hi,

Thanks for the troubleshooting steps.. Worked in Win 7 also.. Helped me to solve the issue after 2 days of troubleshooting. Thanks to Kapil Arya :)

Hi sir,
This is sandeep. Sir i tryed the same sollution But its still not working for me.

The operation returned because the timeout period expaired.

It shows like above line.

Please fix it.

Thanks.

perfect! weeks of troubleshooting trying to get my touchpad working again after a windows update caused it to stop working

This Solved my problem, Thank you very much!!!
Details- after an unexpected power failure the keyboard and mouse would not work on my Windows 10 Desktop PC.
I was able to plug in an old PS/2 style keyboard and that worked, but many tries updating/deleting/updating drivers could not get my USB keyboard or mouse to work. Many internet searches I found nothing.
I rolled back to a checkpoint didn’t work and I was just about to reinstall windows when I came across your solution.
Used your windows/sxs suggestion to manually updated the driver for the keyboard and mouse and a quick reboot and everything seems to be fine.
Again, thanks for your help, this saved me days of reloading and configuring software.

c:\windows\winSxs worked and solved the problem, thank you so much

C:\Windows\winSxs worked and solved the problem, thank you very much

Bless

It’s still faulty

After MANY hours/days of searching for and trying various things to solve my “USB controller drivers not found”, even paying for driver software that did not help,..YOU PROVIDED THE FIX!!!!!!!!!!!! How can I send you a few bucks?

My Microsoft mouse 1000 suddenly stop working, although the keyboard using the same USB micro receiver was still working fine. On another machine both worked perfectly. I tried uninstalling / reinstalling driers and every suggestion I could find online – nothing worked. Finally I found your article and it worked!!
I am eternally grateful!!

After several advices on the web without any results, found this :)
This is help! THANKS!!!

{Operation Failed}
