How do I make a USB port in Windows 10 just provide power and not a
data connection? For example my satnav has a low battery and I just

removable drive and I can't use it.

Er.... that's a video about electric bikes.


Nope. It's about adding an external LED light to a smart phone using the USB
port for power.

Dunno what you were watching.
