I'm using a Nokia Lumia 830 and as the title states, USB connection on my Windows 8.1 laptop doesn't work. There's a popup error on my Windows laptop stating it doesn't recognize the device connected.

Build 15186. Now reverted to 8.1 as the issue was too annoying as I transfer music locally often. The reverting was a hassle as the recovery tool didn't do its magic due to not being able to recognize my phone. I would guess this is related to firmware and the phone drivers or something idk.

Had similar with my Lumia 930, although I didn't get the 'cant recognize the device' dialogue it just didn't acknowledge anything being connected at all.

Had to revert back to 8.1 and it works flawlessly again. Trying to decide whether to upgrade again and see if it re-occurs.

Same. Like living on the edge lol. But minor quirks like this and the store is annoying making me contemplate. I thought this build would ought enough be as stable as developer preview at least.

Tried upgrading again, this time straight from 8.1, and it appears to be working fine now on 10586.
