Trouble shooting Hardware and Devices did not resolve my USB composite device error.  It still reads that problem may be with the driver, but all drivers are up to date.  Should I delete this device?  Not sure what the device does.  Is it the component for a flash drive?

Can you send us a screenshot of the error message? We suggest uninstalling and re-installing USB drivers and check if the issue persists. To do that, please follow these steps:

  1. Right-click on the Start button and select Device Manager.
  2. Expand Universal Serial Bus controllers.
  3. Right-click on the first USB controller under Universal Serial Bus controllers, and then click on Uninstall to remove it.
  4. Repeat these steps for the entire USB controller under Universal Serial Bus controllers.
  5. Restart the computer. Windows will automatically scan for hardware changes and reinstall all the USB controllers that you uninstalled.

Regards.
