Pc Won’t Recognize Switch

[roxzii]

Guide on create and test connection and drivers:

Well, in RCM the laptop detects it and I updated my libusbk driver (which was already installed and working through USB-A). But as soon as it boots, windows no longer detects it. No DBI appears in zadig even after listing all devices. It seems after the switch boots the laptop doesn't recognize the switch no matter what (through the usb-c ports).

if you follow the guide you will install drivers for both states, RCM and DBI/Homebrew.

I know that, I have them installed, and have reinstalled them. If I connect through USB-A it works great, DBI, Awoo, whatever. The problem is that there is no sign of life in either of the USB-C ports after the switch boots, the only stuff that works is in RCM and Hekate.

I Had a weird issue before where a few USB ports on my PC would not pickup my Switch without first connecting a USB hub to them.

This has been dead for some time, but yeah this is it. If it is a thunderbolt port you have to use some sort of HUB and connect the switch to that (and even then only USB A worked, not USB-C).
