On a windows 11, when connected through the USB C port the airpods pros charge for a couple of seconds then stop. The only feasible way to charge them would be to reconnect them every 10 seconds which isn't practical. What is the solution?

Hi All,
There is a solution to this problem that worked for me - got it from someone on Reddit
"
At first I thought this didn't work bc the light was still turning off but they charge perfectly fine now. hope this helps."
Hope this helps you.
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
Brilliant. In my case, Device and Printers didn't let me double-click to open settings, so went to Hardware Manager directly and did the steps to disable the driver. Worked like a charm after that. Thank you.
Similarly, I had these issues and thought to myself that if this is the end of the life of my airpods case/ airpods.
Can’t make any changes to my work laptop control panel settings because obviously it’s a work laptop and an admin log in is required to change anything. So figured that I should try charging it from a different USB port that doesn’t go pass the “windows system” and thought of trying it on my extended monitors in the office. Surprisingly charging from the USB port behind my monitors WORKS!! Try it and thank me later! 😉
Egd88's solution works! Thank you for this solution because I've been dealing with this for a few months now and have had no luck until I read this. Using Zadig was a little confusing at first so I elaborate a little more below:
Once you have zadig open select "list all devices" from the "options" tab. You should then be able to find "AirPod Case" in the dropdown menu. Select this and it should then fill in the driver/ID info automatically. Then select the libusbK driver from the list to the right of the arrow and click "replace driver".
After the new driver is installed, unplug your airpods and then plug them back in and they should charge just fine. The charging light may still turn off but the headphones are charging.
Be very careful to only replace the driver for the "AirPod Case" device, as replacing others could cause problems with your other devices/applications.
