@Maristar-

Thank you for posting on HP Support Community.

 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, I have a few troubleshooting steps we could try to fix the issue:  

  1. Use the following steps to uninstall USB Root Hubs:

    1. Disconnect all USB devices connected to the computer except a USB mouse and keyboard (if in use). This includes hubs, thumb drives, printers, and cameras.

    2. In Windows, search for and open Device Manager.

      The Device Manager window opens.

    3. Double-click Universal Serial Bus Controllers to expand the list.

    4. Right-click the first USB Root Hub in the list, then select Uninstall.

      Click OK to confirm.

    5. Continue uninstalling all USB Root Hubs listed.

    6. Close Device Manager and restart the computer.

    7. If the USB device that is having problems came with software and it was not previously installed, install the software now, following the manufacturer instructions.

    8. Reconnect the USB device that was having problems and test it to see if it works.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
