II. Check the connection method and the port
  1. Use a stable USB port
  • Desktop PC: Use the USB ports on the back of the chassis.
  • Laptop: Use the built-in USB ports directly. Avoid using hubs.
  1. Check the port with a U-Disk
  • If the port functions normally, the data cable may be faulty. Please replace it with a new one and reconnect. It is recommended to use the officially supplied data cable.
  • If the port does not function normally, it is advisable to restart the computer or try connecting to another computer.

Update USB drivers (if the above methods do not work): Click the "Start" menu in the bottom left of the PC screen > search for and open "Device Manager" > expand "Universal Serial Bus Controllers" > locate "USB Devices" or "Removable Storage Devices" > right-click and select "Update Drivers".
