The correct sequence for installing a new USB device and its driver files is to install the device driver first, then attach the device, followed by completing the Add a Device wizard.

This approach ensures that the operating system recognizes the USB device correctly. By installing the driver beforehand, you're supplying the necessary software that allows the operating system to communicate effectively with the hardware. This step helps avoid configuration issues that may arise if the device is connected before the driver is installed, as the system may not recognize or properly configure the new device without the relevant driver being present.

Connecting the device and ensuring the driver is installed before any interaction with the device allows for a smoother installation process. Once the driver is in place, attaching the device enables the system to detect it and proceed with setting it up through the Add a Device wizard, ultimately leading to a successful setup.
