Troubleshoot Lumia 950 cannot connect to Windows 10 PC using USB cable

[Moi61]

Please help me with my problem. I cannot connect my Microsft Lumia 950 to my Windows 10 PC. I only noticed this after I updated both devices to Windows 10 Creators Update.

What happens when you try? Do you get an error? Do other USB devices connect to your computer okay? Do you see your 950 in File Explorer as a removable drive?

Download Windows Recovery tool because it contains some drivers to detect WP. There is an issue in creators update.

Something is wrong with the driver. Anyone knows how to download the driver.

Thank you for your recommendations my friend. Maybe, I will just wait for the next update if it will be fixed. I do not like to reset it also.

Download Windows Device recovery tool, i'm not asking to reset the device. I'm saying there are some uefi based driver for lumias that are missing in w10.

Check your Windows Update history, if you see windows portable device driver dated Feb 2015/2016, please roll back to previous version to fix that rare nug through device manager.

Vasudev, my update history started on April 2016 because I updated my Windows to Creator's update.

Just check in device manager for portable device. Be sure to tick mark "Show hidden devices" in View Tab. If you see a option to rollback driver, simply do it.
