Some can be used in a certain period of time, but sometimes it cannot be used. In short, USB interfaces often encounter various problems, which causes external devices to be unable to connect and use normally. In fact, the USB interface failure can be attributed to "hardware" and "software". The hardware mainly refers to whether the computer hardware is damaged, software refers to the failure of the USB interface due to an error in the Program settings of the computer. This article mainly analyzes the problem of USB interface faults in computer software, hoping to help you.
