Why do you have to install Usb-Drivers on Windows, but I never had to do it on Linux? - Lemmy.World

On my Job I regularly have to install Windows PCs and sometimes even install the USB Drivers for Mouse and Keyboard to work. Why dont I have to do that on Linux ever? Seems weird not to have them installed on Windows.

You’ve probably figured this by now, OP, but the computers at your job are weird. Needing to install USB drivers for mouse and keyboard to work is not normal behavior for Windows. Like another person commented- check the BIOS settings.
Windows ME didn’t have the ability to automatically install USB drivers and it was fucking bullshit even back then.
