Only if other applications used USB devices via that library; if they
use the system kernel library (such as for filesystem access), they
would not be affected.

Also there could be intentional "corruption", such as system updates,
shims, or malware, that have only been tested with more popular
devices.

I expect so, but I'm not a Windows expert.  Compare it across systems
you have access to.
