Many users encounter this error notification quite frequently " USB device not recognized. The last USB device connected to this device did not work properly and was not recognized by Windows". This error notification appears whenever you try to connect a USB stick, printer, etc. This error occurs when the PC does not recognize the external device.
While this error notification is useful if the external storage device, scanner or camera is indeed damaged, it has also been known to sometimes generate false warnings. Most likely the device is completely fine, but the error is still displayed, which can be annoying.
Although it is recommended to keep USB notifications active, but if the error appears from time to time and every time you connect an external device, you can disable USB error notifications on your Windows 10 PC.
Let's see how.
Solution: via the settings app
Step 1: Go to Home on the desktop and click settings in the context menu, located above the file energia option.
Step 2: A settings window, click devices.
Step 3: In the next window, on the left side of the panel, scroll down and click USB. Now, on the right side of the window, uncheck the box next to Notify me if there are problems connecting to USB devices.
That's all. USB error notifications should now not appear again on your Windows 10 PC when you insert an external device or USB device next time.
