1. Go to Device Manager.
2. Universal Serial Bus controllers.
3. Select yellow error icon Intel(R) Series/C216 Chipset Family USB Enhanced Host Controller - 1E26>
4. Double click in it a box seen select Driver from the top of the box and click on the Disable option and disable it.
5. And again undisable it it may start to work. Inspiron 3521, also need not to restart>

Hi manoharan250,
Did you make any recent changes to the computer? Also check if USB port has power. (Connect a mouse and check if the light glows on the mouse)
Install the latest chipset and BIOS from the below link. If possible attach a snapshot of the device manager.

Hi harish, It was suddenly not working. I thought it was error in OS(Windows 7), so I reformatted and installed all the updated drivers. I installed the following drivers also. USB Port is having power supply( light glows on the mouse)

Hi,
I also faced the same issue on my dell Inspiron.
The problem is that my USB driver got corrupted somehow and hence my laptop stopped detecting nay USB drive.
I found out that there is a driver that we need to re- install. But then again the problem is
Dell N4010 does not have drivers for Windows 8 :-(
So I needed to install it in compatibility mode.
I made a small article about this issue with snapshots.

This is an external link outside dell forum, I am not sure If I am allowed to do so but I cant write all the steps here:
