Connecting my phone to my computer?

This is my first question on superuser, and I would really appreciate your help on this issue:
The problem: My device isn't getting detected in android studio
The solution: Install the correct usb drivers
The problem that arises to the solution: I am not able to...and here are the details:
I have recently system wiped my computer due to slowness. This brings me back to the tedious task of setting up my computer for android studio. I have tried everything to get the usb drivers to work in android studio, but for some reason, I can't update my usb driver:
Now, here is the annoying screen that always pops up when trying to update my usb driver:
My usb driver is installed:
This is pretty pathetic. I have tried everything. I even tried to go into my computers bios and disable Intel xHCI. I remember when I first started android, I had this same problem, and the solution was to do something in the computer's bios, but the problem still persists.
By the way, I have done lots of research on this topic, and this is a code 28, which means it doesn't have the correct drivers:
I have been on this for 3 hours now (3 HOURS!) and would really appreciate any help. How can I get my phone recognized on my windows 8 laptop? I have done it before, so I know my phone is compatible.
Thanks so much,

Now I'm not trying to insult your intelligence here. I'm just curious... you did actually try to install this driver via Device Manager, correct? You didn't just copy it to the android SDK folder right?
– Wes Sayeed
Nov 24 '15 at 2:48
@WesSayeed Yes. I went to device manager->Update Driver Software->Browse my Computer Manually->MESSAGE: Unable to install. I did nothing with the SDK folder except for browse for it, which was in the following path:C:UsersRuchirAppDataLocalAndroidsdkextrasgoogleusb_driver.

While I've never had this problem these are the steps I would take if I were you:
Google (your phone name) + "driver" to make sure there is no special driver that you do not have installed.
Look in your phone settings to make sure you do not have some PC connection option unticked.
Try uninstalling and reinstalling all drivers to do with the connection of your android phone.
This guide might be helpful.

Is android studio recognizing other devices? If no, then it may be a problem with android studio. And I would refer you to my first suggestion. Have you checked if there is a special driver for your phone that you might not have installed? If I may ask what is the model of phone that you have?

Nov 24 '15 at 3:04
I have done this entire process before I system wiped my computer. Before, it would work without a need to install anything special. I also remember that last time, I did something in my system bios...

Nov 24 '15 at 3:06
If it was something in your system bios I'm thinking maybe it was the hardware virtualization option (VT-x). Try this link howtogeek.com/213795/… This will allow you to enable hardware virtualization. Try that and let me know if it works.

First make sure that you have virtualization on in the bios.
Next, make sure you have done what I have done in my question.
What I forgot to do was install the android_winusb file in the usb_driver folder. The path should be sdkextrasgoogleusb_driver. In my case, C:UsersRuchirAppDataLocalAndroidsdkextrasgoogleusb_driver
After doing that, go back to device manager and go to the install as path. At the bottom of that should be another option:
Let me pick from a list of devices on my computer
Select your android phone, it shouldn't have a yellow explamation point over it any more. After that, select composite ADB Interface. THATS IT.
Windows made this whole process so long. I spent 7 and a half hours on it today!

Next, make sure you have done what I have done in my question.
What I forgot to do was install the android_winusb file in the usb_driver folder. The path should be sdkextrasgoogleusb_driver. In my case, C:UsersRuchirAppDataLocalAndroidsdkextrasgoogleusb_driver
After doing that, go back to device manager and go to the install as path. At the bottom of that should be another option:
Let me pick from a list of devices on my computer
Select your android phone, it shouldn't have a yellow explamation point over it any more. After that, select composite ADB Interface. THATS IT.
Windows made this whole process so long. I spent 7 and a half hours on it today!

Now I'm not trying to insult your intelligence here. I'm just curious... you did actually try to install this driver via Device Manager, correct? You didn't just copy it to the android SDK folder right?

@WesSayeed Yes. I went to device manager->Update Driver Software->Browse my Computer Manually->MESSAGE: Unable to install. I did nothing with the SDK folder except for browse for it, which was in the following path:
C:UsersRuchirAppDataLocalAndroidsdkextrasgoogleusb_driver.– Ruchir Baronia
