Airpod case not charging from laptop

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

"

  • ⁠Plug in Airpods case to USB-C
  • ⁠Go to Control Panel
  • ⁠View Devices and printers
  • ⁠Under 'Unspecified' you'll find AirPod Case, double click it
  • ⁠Hardware tab
  • ⁠Double click HID-compliant device (not the USB input)
  • ⁠Click Change settings
  • ⁠Driver tab
  • ⁠Disable Device
  • ⁠Unplug, then reconnect your case


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.
