@Krishna135, Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble with your USB device. Here are some steps you can try to resolve the issue:
- Restart Your Computer: Sometimes a simple restart can fix recognition issues.
- Update USB Drivers: Go to Device Manager, find your USB device, right-click, and select "Update driver." You can also try uninstalling and reinstalling the driver.
- Change USB Ports: Try connecting your USB device to different ports on your laptop. Sometimes specific ports may have issues.
- Disable USB Selective Suspend: Go to Control Panel > Power Options > Change plan settings > Change advanced power settings > USB settings > Disable USB selective suspend.
- Run Hardware and Devices Troubleshooter: Type "Troubleshoot" in the Windows search bar, select "Hardware and Devices," and follow the prompts.
- Check for Windows Updates: Ensure your Windows 11 is up to date, as updates can fix compatibility issues.
