This handy utility list all available usb devices that has been installed on the system.
With it, you can disable or uninstall them as well as see important information such as last connected, safe to unplug and more.
The main reason i use it is to uninstall usb devices that won’t be plugged again in my computers, because windows looks for this devices when starting up. Many of you may have tons of devices listed, which can add some seconds to the time it takes Windows to boot.
