The root cause of some of this, is the pattern I've spotted
where Microsoft is trying to take over all the proprietary
drivers. This is likely why USB DACs got broken. They didn't
get broken because the manufacturer sent an update. And the usual
USB parts of a PC, would have nothing to do with USB DAC health,
that would also not be affecting the operation of USB sticks
or USB disk enclosures and so on.

The USB DACs likely got affected, by some attempt to create a
class driver for the DACs, and failing at it.

But the rest of the symptoms, I don't see a locus there, to predict
where those problems are coming from. Usually the File Explorer
is relatively immune to the churn around it. And if you fouled up
a disk driver... the system isn't going to be able to boot. And the
class drivers for that, haven't been updated in years. It's because
of the simplicity of making read/write work on a disk.
