Solved Airpods not Charging USB-C Windows 10

I found this solution on reddit and it worked for me.

"My Airpods case would not charge through the USB-C port on Windows 10. It

would charge when I shut the computer off, but the moment Windows booted up it stopped charging.

I see a lot of other people have the same issue, but couldn't find a solution.

Figured I would share what worked for me after some trial and error.

Simply disabling the driver seems to be working nicely for now.

Possible workaround:

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

Windows will complain about a driver error, but AFAIK you only need the case to draw power so a working driver isn't needed."
