    Surface Pro through Surface Pro 6 have USB 3.0 type A ports. Surface Pro 7 and 7+ have 1 USB 3.0 type A ports. Surface Pro 8 and higher drop the USB3.0 type A ports and offer only USB-C ports. Do you know what model you have? Open the Surface app.. Download it from the Store if you don't have it and this will identify your Surface.

    Hello, I’m Virginia, a fellow user like yourself.

    Sorry to hear you’re experiencing problems.

    Do the ports look anything like one of these?

    If not then can you post a photo?
