Unknown ghost device in device manager
Hi there it been a long while since I've been here,
Around 3+ weeks ago I start getting annoying warnings that windows wasn't able to detect a "USB device" as it plays the disconnected and reconnected sounds, and as time moved on it kept increasing,
Looking on the Device manager under Universal controller devices I found an Unknown Device that don't belong to anything, and removing it and its duplicates manually with "set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1" and Show hidden devices option in CMD/Device manager, didn't helped since the system will just scan for it again and readd it in less than 10 mins (and disabling it didn't helped ofc),
From what I've read on similar cases it could be a driver that causes this issue but I have no clue what the driver or source in general is since I don't think I've done anything major around these weeks,
Also exporting info with System Information didn't gave any error at the [Problem Devices] (Device PNP don't have any error code),
And doing a system restore (or doing any system breaking things) is out of question at this point,
All I need is help pinpointing the source of the issue so I could delete it for good.
Just to note few things:
1. I've checked all of my USB devices and pretty sure none of them are causing the issue,
2. The System Information prints the log in my OS's lang (which is not Eng)
Any help will be appreciated (that issue driving me nuts ;/)
