Repair problems and hardware device drivers in Windows usb drives are not recognized properly on our Windows 8 can sometimes be a difficult task especially when we see that the unit is operating on another computer.
 
In windows 7 to this problem with regedit we could go to the following path \ Hkey current users \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ Current user \ Policies \ so if there was more than one entry we had to delete one, so the problem is solved.
 
8.1 In window, as the above solution is not efizcaz, the Fixit tool available free from the website of Microsoft support. This utility automatically diagnoses and repairs problems hardware and audio devices, USB not working or hardware that is not recognized.

To run it, just have to go to the official website of Microsoft and follow these simple instructions:
 
Click the link to the page Microsoft and accept the download installer (of course the sw carries no malware or publicity given the origin of the software itself is the fabbrciante own)
 
In the upper right part we have to press "Run now" link
 
Now we have to accept the download, and allow execution of this application DeviceWin8.meta.diagcab.
 
If it is not running, double-click and allow execution of this (by clicking on Si)
