USB Devices function only when plugged into their port, if moved require administrator rights to install.
We are using windows xp professional SP2. Started seeing issues where if a USB device is moved from one USB port to another users will get prompted requiring administrator rights to install the device. If you move back to the original port the device works. Policies have not been changed as far as we can tell, and unless it was in one of the updates we accepted and installed we have not changed any permissions. The user community does not have the ability to load drivers, so the first time a device is installed the administrators do need to load the drivers, and this has always been the case, but the requirement to reinstall the driver per USB port is new. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. 1 person needs an answerI do too
