I ran the file from the notebook driver list and at the end the notebook freezes with message removing backup files.
Then I need to power it off and power it on and it says that drivers for usb 3.0 host controller are not properly installed.
What is happening?How do I fix this issue?None of the USB 3.0 ports are working.
