Question Bent mobo pin

[Billybeaver28]

I recently bent one of the USB front panel connector pins. Is this repaireable? and if so are there any tricks?

How badly did you bend it? Which one did you bend out of the pins? Is it USB 3 or USB 2? Often times, if you've bent an unnecessary pin, you'll be good to go. Make and model of your board?

Pictures of the bent pin would be great, if it's not bent significantly just try to bend it back with a pair of pliers or your finger if you can.

I bent a VGA pin today, just bent it back and it still works. I've been running a CPU with a pin missing for about 6 months. If are able to just bend it back, it should be good
