A couple of years back I used the script from /u/Hynauts to delete everything, but now I think they patched this and it won't work.

Is there anyway to do it for free today?

I have this scarlett interface for almost two years now and I use it as my main audio device in my PC. I have two problems (which I did extensive research and never found a definitive solution):

1. Sometimes during regular use the interface just disconnects from the PC and starts to flash the red light on the USB icon. Then you have to disconnect the USB cable from it and reconnect it like a hundred times before its all green and ready to use again.
2. Sometimes also during regular use the interface just starts with a very annoying static buzz. No indication of anything happening. This just starts out of nowhere and the only solution is to change audio devices on windows audio settings.

My first thought was that was a cable problem. I always used the focusrite cable provided with the interface, but this problem was so frequent that I started testing other cables. For some reason one of my old samsung cables was able to reduce the amount of times this problem appears, but it is still quite frequent and annoying.

I also noticed that this problem is way worse when playing some games. I thought it could be my PSU not being able to handle everything, but this problem also appears in more powerful PCs. I also thought there was a correlation between this problem and CPU usage, but this actually seems random. Some heavy games have it, some don't. Some soft games have it, some don't.

I saw a reddit post where a dude says that "the only solution is to ditch" the interface, but I really like it and I don't the money for this right now. I just need this thing working like it's supposed to.

Appreciate any help from you guys.

Update: First, yeah, I've tried different USB ports. Second, I've connected cables on BOTH USB ports (one on PC and the other direct on my power plug) and it seems to reduce the problems (BUT THEY'RE STILL THERE). Maybe they can start building this interface with 3 USB ports??? How many would be necessary to stop this nonsense.
