Did you make any software or hardware changes on your PC?

Have you tried plugging the USB device into different USB ports?

Have you tried checking different USB devices?
 
Please try the steps recommended below.
 
Step 1:
Open RUN (Windows Logo + R) and type “devmgmt.msc” and click OK.
Step 2:
Now expand Universal Serial Bus controllers.
Step 3:
Attach your device which is not recognized.
Step 4:
You will see an Unknown USB device (Port reset failed) with a yellow sign in Universal Serial Bus controllers.
Step 5:
Now right-click on it and click Uninstall to remove them.

If the above steps do not fix the problem, please try the steps mentioned below.
 
Open Device Manager (Right Click on Windows Logo and Click Device Manager).
Now find and expand Universal Serial Bus controllers. Now right-click on USB drivers and click Uninstall. Do for all USB drivers one by one.

DiskPart Command Prompt Utility

Hit Windows Key + X, and select Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu. Type diskpart, and press Enter

 Next, type list disk, and press Enter.

Next, type select disk [your disk number]

Once selected, enter the following command:

attributes disk clear readonly

Into the Registry We Go

If none of the previous steps have solved your Write Protection error, don’t worry. We’ve still got a few more tricks in the book. Next, we’re going to edit the Windows Registry. If you’re not comfortable editing the registry, I understand. You can skip to the next section — formatting your USB drive. If that step is a little too drastic, I’d advise giving this option a try.

Press Windows Key + R to open the Run dialogue. Type Regedit and press Enter. Now, navigate to the following registry location:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StorageDevicePolicies
Look for a key named WriteProtect.

If it exists, double-click it. This will open the Edit DWORD (32-bit) Value box. You can now set one of two values: 0 or 1. 1 means “Yes, write protect my USB storage devices.” Conversely, 0 means “No, don’t write protect my USB storage devices.” Set the value to 0, and then press OK.
 

If the solution provided worked for you, please mark Accepted solution for this post.

Keep me posted!
Have a great day ahead!
