I hope this is the right place to put this...

but I really messed up my desktop this time, in an attempt to debug a USB port problem I was previously having, I looked up a guide that suggested uninstalling all "USB Root Hubs", but as I uninstalled the 3.0 root hub, I became unable to use my keyboard or mouse, and now im stuck with an unusable desktop st login screen:/

Is there any way to remotely install the Root hub again so I may at lest login??

If there are no USB 2.0 ports available you'll have to perform an improper, sudden shutdown by holding in your computer's front power button for around five seconds.

When you power up again you'll get a black screen with two options, choose "Start Windows normally" and as windows loads it should reinstall the USB Root Hub drivers.

When USB is working okay again, run the Windows "Error Checker" to check the hard drive for inconsistencies caused by the improper shutdown.
