ALL Micro USB devices suddenly stop working AND responding in recent 22H2 update!

Question

I have had ENOUGH of this issue! After the 22H2 update, ALL of my computers have suddenly stopped responding to Micro USB devices. I tried plugging in my glucometer, and it's NOT being recognized (no tone when connected, not showing up in device manager) whatsoever. Tried another computer, still the same thing (no tone, no instance in device manager) and tried another cable, still the same thing! I even tried resetting the computer (mine and all others in my household) and still the same thing. I contacted Lenovo and HP and they wouldn't help either. The motherboard was JUST replaced last year, and doesn't really matter what computer is on. All of them are on the same version (22H2)

I even googled it and nothing but malware and irrelevant results popped up. I even tried my old phone (On5, G550T, 6.0.1, Micro USB), still the same thing (no tone, no recognition in Device Manager)

I tried disconnecting and reconnecting, restarting the computer and device, AND even checked malware settings and they are all OK.

Please tell me if Windows 10 AND 11 discontinued support for Micro USB in order for new devices to be the main priority (USB type C). It works fine in <22H2 and other OS's as well.

Thanks

Hello

At present, there is no information about the stop of support for Micro USB in Windows 10/11. It is recommended to lower the operating system version for testing, or use the "Feedback Center" application to send feedback to Microsoft:
