1]Go to control pannel
2]Go to System and Security
3]Go to Device Manager
4]Click Universal Serial Bus Controllers
5]Right click the USB
6]Click Uninstall
then Reboot computer while pendrive is inserted in USB
Then connect to the internet.

When you connect to the internet if the said USB is empty
(i.e. no device is inserted in it) they install the device
eventhough the device is not present, causing the said error.

@silentplanner this seems like a good fix. I tried it but I still get the same issue as our friend here. It simply pops up randomly and spams my computer with the connecting/disconnecting sound. I don't know what it is, I've unplugged everything and it still says USB not recognized. I've only ever had this on Windows 8.1.
