What USB driver should we use for the Nexus 5?

Question

As of the time of this writing, Google does not provide a USB driver (for Windows) for the Nexus 5. The usual link (http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html) shows Wind

This worked for me:

1. Download the Nexus 5 Drivers from Google USB Driver
2. Extract the ZIP contents and place all files in a single folder on your desktop.
3. Connect your device to your computer.
4. Launch the Device Manager on your PC.
5. Now you should see the Nexus 5 listed in the hardware list.
6. Right-click the ‘Nexus 5′ line and then click on Update Driver Software.
7. Next, click the ‘browse my computer’ option.
8. In the new window, click on ‘Browse…’ button.
9. Go to folder unzipped at step 2. Select the folder where you extract the USB drivers. Click Next.
   • Make sure to tick the subfolder box too.
10. Now, the Windows installer will search for Nexus 5 drivers. Click Install when asked for permission.
11. Wait for the process to complete and then check the Device Manager list to confirm that the installation was successful.
