Has Win 10 fixed the USB joystick disconnect bug?

I don't know if it was a published fix, but i had the bug in windows 8.1.  Never happened again after I grabbed win10, dev. preview or RTM.

I upgraded to windows 10 yesterday and indeed have the bug.  PFC yoke disconnects every few seconds with the accompanying sound.  Very annoying.  Going back to Windows 7 if I can't resolve it in the next few days.

Is this USB 2.0 or USB 3.0? 

I've not had the issue with Windows 10 so far - day one update install for me.

Went back to Windows 7.  No longer have disconnect problem...Talked to tech support at Precision Flight Controls and they feel there is still an issue with Windows 10 and USB controls...

You have to uncheck the boxes that allows power to be intercepted. This a fix that was offered in 8.1. In the Device Manager, go to all the USB items, right click and go to advanced, then unclick the box that allows power saving. This worked for me.

Did that.  Did not work for me.  Did not try the registry edit method though...

Is this for you an issue with Saitek controllers? If so look for my new topic posted today in the Windows 10 forum. It might help you.
