2003*

Never had my PC (win10: 2016-2022 and win11: 2023-now) install a driver for a USB stick ever.
Even some external devices are painless.
And I see plenty of PCs in my job.

Edit: Win7 on the other hand...

    huh every time I plug my Logitech receiver in a different port I get a notification about a driver installation, fortunately it's almost instant on my new pc but it's still weird that we need that in 2023

    I still have it from time to time that Windows has to install a driver for something benign like a thumb drive. Not always, though. And yes, the driver is fixed to the physical port. Using a different port reinstalls the same driver again.

    Experienced this exact behavior on Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10 and Windows 11.
