If you’ve been experiencing USB issues after recently upgrading your computer, we’ve got some good news for you. Microsoft recently rolled out a new Windows 10 patch to fix this problem.
Update KB4090913 is available for the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update and you can download it automatically through Windows Update or get the stand-alone package from Microsoft’s Update Catalog.
So, if your USB mouse and keyboard occasionally stop working, download this update to quickly solve the problem.
As Microsoft explains, these USB issues were triggered by outdated rivers.
Here is the official update description:
Addresses an issue in which some USB devices and onboard devices, such as a built-in laptop camera, keyboard, or mouse, stop working. This may occur when the Windows Update servicing stack incorrectly skips installing the newer version of some critical drivers in the cumulative update and uninstalls the currently active drivers during maintenance.
