All of my USB devices randomly disconnect and will sometimes reconnect on their own in 10-20 seconds. Other times when they do not reconnect I have to completely restart the PC to get devices back working. I have tried uninstalling drivers for the USB roothubs and devices with no luck of a fix. I have not seen this issue addressed elsewhere or corrected. Other instances have not been similar to mine and this issue was non existent before upgrading to Win11. I even did a repair install of Win11 with no luck either. Any help or fixes would be greatly appreciated.

Try disabling Edge on startup and reboot. I know, it doesn't sound like it would be related but this fixed it for me, and I can't explain it. problem is, after a windows update, it was back on in startup, so I had to disable it again after that.
I started Taskmanager and killed alle Edge and webview process. I was able to copy more than a GB of data. Excatly at the moment I opened Edge, my USB disk dropped out, and copying halted..
This is excatly what I have experienced. No problems in windows 10, upgrading to win 11 indroduced this error. Then A reenstall of win 11 didnt fix the problem, however it became less frequent. One thing Ive noticed, is the longer the pc is on, the more frequent it becomes
Thanks

Windows 11 is a premature program
Usb ports are not good to use anymore
requesters wil apear oudside the screen
burnig backups on dvd won't work

Problem still exist after upgrade to win 11
My laptop at work has more isues after update to win 11
can not do the inlog thing .. keboard is not responding must every day do several reboots to get it to work
This is already my 2nd Windows 11 laptop that does this. I have a Yenkee Spark speaker connected through USB cable and just a minute or two later it suddently gets disconnected and goes into a bluetooth mode. It happened to me on an Asus and Lenovo laptops but for some reason not on Acer (all have Win 11). This is just terrible incompetence on MS side.
