I have 2 windows 10 machines in which I'm performing 'Disable device' of USB eXtensible Host controller.
In one machine I see immediate effect, device gets disabled and other machine needs to be restarted to take effect.
My question is why is it 2 machines are behaving differently and is there any way we can 'Disable device' without PC restart?
May be some differences in the firmware, hardware or drivers.

@Dave Patrick Thank you for answering the question. Is there any way to avoid it?
I'd check the pc's firmware, chipset and drivers are up to date.

You may have to ask the driver or hardware developers. I've found at times we can simply ignore the prompt for reboot.
