Here we go AGAIN, another update shutting down USB connections.

[bravedan]

I'm getting thoroughly fed up with the way that Windows 10 Updates keep messing up my laptops!

EVERY time an update loads it activates the "Better USB Driver" which promptly shuts down access to most of the peripherals I use until I force it to go back to the old driver (and the revert option is always greyed out  creating far more work than necessary).  Since one of these preipherals forced out of connection is a huge worldwide selling unit which relies on USB connection to operate, it can't be simply written off as outside their remit to include compatibility.

Also EVERY time after Win10 update PowerDesk reports an issue with the key and will not load, and I have to use compatibility mode to force it to work again.

GGGGGRRRRRRRRR
