Windows Update KB3022345 Said to Be Causing “USB Device Not Recognized” Errors

More users confirm problems after installing KB3022345

If you’re an avid Microsoft watcher, you’ve probably heard that this month’s Patch Tuesday was quite a fiasco, with several updates causing trouble on computers installing them.

This time, we’ve come across a bug that appears to exist on several of our machines here at Softpedia and that has already been confirmed by other users on Microsoft’s Community forums.

KB3022345, which is one of the updates revised and released as part of this month’s Patch Tuesday, is causing “USB device not recognized” error messages on the desktop whenever you plug in a USB device, such as a phone or a flash drive.

We’re getting this error in Windows 8.1 and everything seems to be working fine in Windows 7. Removing the update doesn’t solve the problem, so for the moment, the only way to fix it is a system restore that could get the computer to a previous state, when the update is not installed.

Unable to fix the issues
Needless to say, performing a system restore isn’t quite the method that comes in handy to many of you, so we’re still waiting for some official statements from Microsoft to find out whether KB3022345 is indeed at fault for these issues or not.

KB3022345 is an update released to enable the Diagnostics Tracking Service in Windows, and on its official page, Microsoft acknowledges that there might be some issues when installing it.

“The current version of this hotfix, Version 2, was published on May 6, 2015. The previous version of this hotfix was Version 1.005. Both versions provide the same functionality and protection except that Version 2 includes a minor update to support devices that do not contain U.S. English language files. However, the current hotfix is not a compatible upgrade to Version 1.005 and may cause an error (800F0922) if it is installed over the old version,” it states.

The company goes on to say that you should only install this if you haven’t deployed a previous version. Otherwise, if an existing version of KB3022345 already exists on your computer, you’re recommended to wait for a future release that should fix all problems.

It seems every month I'll have to despise the morons working on the Bork Tuesday at Microsoft. They always manage to fxxk up your OS here and there, every single month. A fxxking patch needs to be re-released and still they could not get it right. These who contributed the shitty code needs to be fired. Otherwise they will have no concern to continue to fxxk up your OS when the next bunch of patches are released. Some lousy coders should be held accoutable for this kind of stupid move. Enough is enough.

Installed without any problems, all the USB devices work like they must work, not find any trouble.

But it is probably just for me so?

Windows 8.1 got still many bugs. I had windows 8.1 professional install on my HP6300 and due to a major windows update in March

my wifi give up. i have 3 hp pc at that time with windows 8.1 pro install and all of them got the same problem after the update.

Wifi problem , i have done many thing to fix it, but i could not.

So i switch back to windows 7 prof 64 bit.

Untill now i would say windows 7 is a Great OS. :showoff:

Really people don't read its not a problem with Windows 7 , just windows 8.1 I don't think it happened to every one Just some systems . With any of the updates they botched and called back this year and last year I've never had trouble with them.. but some did on windows 8.1 and Windows 7 .

And as far as botched updates don't try to fool yourself and others it happened to windows 7 just as much as it did to windows 8.1 before. Just because this one bug doesn't effect Windows 7 in the past there were issues that didn't effect 8.1 that effected Windows 7 and in the future there mot likely will be more issues too for all OS. You're not except from M$ screw ups just because you use and older version of windows . :lol: :P

Here's one back in March patch Tuesday of this year that only effected Windows 7.
