    I recently encountered an issue where my USB endoscope was not recognized as an MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) device. After searching for solutions, I found a helpful thread on a tech forum. The suggested steps included checking the USB connection, updating the MTP driver manually, and using the Command Prompt to resolve driver issues.

    1. Checked Connections: I ensured the USB cable and port were functioning correctly by testing them with other devices.
    2. Updated MTP Driver: I went to Device Manager, right-clicked on the problematic device, and selected “Update driver.” I manually installed the MTP driver from the path C:\Windows\INF.
    3. Used Command Prompt: I ran the Command Prompt as an administrator and executed the command net localgroup Administrators localservice /add to ensure proper permissions for driver installation.

      From this experience, I learned the importance of systematically troubleshooting hardware issues. Checking connections and updating drivers are crucial first steps. Additionally, using the Command Prompt can help resolve permission-related issues that might prevent proper driver installation.
