- Check the USB port physically: This is the first and foremost step to be considered when you find that the device is not working after inserting into the USB port. The port is delicately manufactured and should be appropriately used. Any mishandling will damage the chips and the devices inserted in that particular port will not work correctly.
- Loose connections: In case any device is not working, first check the computer and the device ports properly. If everything is fine, then check if there are any loose connections either on the computer or the peripheral device. Remove the USBcable and re-fix it.

If old device drivers are not removed or uninstalled, it may create a problem in the operation of a new device and ultimately will not work correctly. In such a case, the benefit of the doubt will be on the USB port and not on the device. So a device is also equally responsible for not working.
Today the world is controlled by internet and computer is the primary tool used in the process. No matter what the place of work is, be it at home or factory, the computer is present everywhere and requires to be rectified at the right time to avoid damage to other devices also.
