How To Install Surface Type Cover Filter Device Driver



Sometime within the last 1-2 weeks my Surface Pro's type cover stopped working. Device Manager shows a failed 'type cover' device under Other Devices (with an exclamation point on it). I don't think it's a hardware issue because if I hold down Power and Volume Up to get into the UEFI screen then my Type Cover keyboard arrows work fine to navigate the menus.
  1. Per https://support.microsoft.com/en-us...ubleshoot-your-surface-type-cover-or-keyboard I've tried uninstalling it and letting the driver re-install, but it just beeps continuously until I disconnect the type cover and then the Device Manager shows the same Other Devices failed device.
  2. I also tried going to Microsoft Download Center and re-installing the latest Surface Pro drivers software. No change.
  3. I also tried System Restore to go back to a system version from a couple days ago. No change.

  • Installing Surface Pro 3 Type Cover Driver Hi, I have recently had my Surface Pro 3 and Type Cover replaced under warranty.
