unknown devices in device manager in xps 13 9350
Does anyone else have these two Unknown Devices in their XPS 13 device manager? I don't recall removing anything that would cause this and the system can't find any device drivers for it nor does updating the drivers from the dell web site resolve it.
There isn't any current function that we're using that isn't working so I'm not sure what category of thing these are and the hardware ID's aren't of the expected format so they don't reveal anything either.
Everything is unplugged and wireless is turned off(airplane mode on) so these are not external items.

I believe what Colin is saying is that it is expected. They are software 'devices' that are there because the software is installed (though not sure why they couldn't fix it so it wasn't showing this way). So there is nothing to do and you there is nothing that isn't working incorrectly because of this device manager notification.

Nope. Though I'm sort of glad you noticed the same thing so I know I don't have a unique situation. I don't imagine most folks ever go to the device manager now days (or even know what it is) to see this.

I wonder if someone from dell could identify the problem and find a solution?

Hi,
These 2 "Unknown Devices" are part of the Dell Client System Analyzer software
DellProf is the Dell System Analyzer Control Device
DDDriver is the Dell Diags Device Driver

Thanks for the clarification. Are you saying they will never be 'known' even if the software is correctly installed? (I'm also assuming they are virtual devices - software, not actual hardware)

Hi Colin,
I have the same problem and am wondering how to fix it? I have searched for the software you mentioned above but cannot find it anywhere.
Thanks!
