USB not working after install/uninstall

Open Hallohannes123 opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I installed UsbDk and my mouse and keyboard stopped working. booting without driver signature didn't fix it. In Troubleshooting i installed and then uninstalled it with UsbDkController.exe -u, but my keyboard still won't work. How do I fix this?

Resetting windows "fixed" it and afterwards the installer ran without issues. Not sure if I should close this as "reset windows" is not really the best fix.

You can disable UsbDk from the recovery command prompt with: REG ADD HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\UsbDk /f /v Start /t REG_DWORD /d 4 In the worst case you might have to start regedit and load the c:\Windows\system32\config\SYSTEM hive to set this value.
