go to control panel --> Device Manager --> uninstall the USB and restart your PC, it will auto install back the USB driver.
If not let us know your motherboard

Actually what's wrong with Windows 10? Been hearing reports that it cannot detect their USB keyboards, mice, flash drive and portable HDD.

Didn't hear of such issues in Windows 8.1, 8 and 7.

when u go device manager, do u even see the thumbdrive?

if can see, issit ? icon? if yes just uninstall and insert thumbdrive again.

if totally cannot detect then your chipset and mobo driver or even usb 3.0 driver never install properly.

same, i got 4 PCs (E8400, Q8400, Phenom II 955, i5-4690) running win10, no issue at all.

I have a ORICO external 2.5" HDD casing and it does not work with Windows 10. It worked with Windows 7 and 8.1 . Tried updating drivers but didn't help.
