Driver issues connecting to both windows 8.1 and windows 7 on all 4 of my computers even with other anker products connected to it.

Windows says "A device connected to your computer has malfunctioned", nothing appears in the device manager, not even under "Other devices" so it isn't a driver issue

I have to assume that this is a driver issue and that the device physically worked, or else it would never have worked at all.

No windows driver issues (I havent tried with linux yet

I'm not removing a star for the driver issue, because that's not Anker's fault, MacOS should be better about detecting and finding drivers (although I suppose it's possible that Anker could work harder to get it published, but I suspect Apple make that a nightmare of a process
