Microsoft says it is ending USB-C confusion with updated Windows 11 WHCP

USB-C, once touted as a universal connection solution, has become a source of confusion due to varying capabilities among devices. To address this complexity, Microsoft is introducing the Windows Hardware Compatibility Program (WHCP) to ensure USB-C ports provide consistent functionality across compatible systems. This initiative aims to standardize device compatibility, helping users understand their USB-C capabilities and ensuring seamless operation without hidden issues. By leveraging WHCP, Microsoft strives to make USB-C a straightforward and reliable connection option for all users.
