Airpod case not charging from laptop

all I can say is wow... I’m on a road trip and was about to take a trip to the closest Apple 🍏 store but you saved me a trip, time and more hours of frustration... this worked like a CHARM... Thanks for sharing and let’s all send great vibes to the person on Reddit who you got this fix from... from being unable to use my AirPods for 2days Im now at 30% and rising after applying this fix... thanks for sharing...

Same for me. Only airpods (two separate sets, pro and normal) not charging from new laptop running Windows 10 Enterprise 21H2. Every other apple device charging fine fine same cable. Also tried different cables: same result --> airpods charge for a few seconds then they stop charging.

This is seriusly annoying for someone like me working on the go and not always near a normal power outlet. please Fix!

Thankyou,

Thank you this helped alot.

For the people that have the "Disable device" greyed out initially, you have to click on the "Change settings" button with the admin logo, then click allow.

After that you can disable the device

Worked like a charm for me, thanks so much! On Windows 11 it's slightly different:

• In Control Panel, from Bluetooth & Devices > Devices click View more devices
• Scroll all the way to the bottom (past where you see AirPod Case under Other devices)
• Click More devices and printer settings
• Scroll to the bottom of the new window, where you'll see AirPod Case under Unspecified

• Then follow noa250's instructions to disable the driver.

Thank you so much noa250 for your help, this worked for me. this issue has bothered me for few months, I had to carry power adaptor everywhere with me. Now I don't need that anymore. My phone charges with laptop again. Great Job!!

have you found a solution? Same here...
