MBED USB HID fails to detach after unplug USB cable

I downloaded the handbook USB HID sample program to MBED and used HID API on Windows XP PC.

It was all working: read/write feature report, etc.

Then I unplug the USB cable, somehow the Windows HID device driver (as displayed in Control Panel/Device Manger/Human Interface/HID-compliant device) doesn't disappear (detach).

When I re-plug in the USB cable, now I am not able to talk to MBED via HID API (hidtest program) any more.

I have to restart my computer to go back to the initial state.

Anyone has similar experiences?

Question relating to:

It seems like my exe crashes during the earlier test. It probably fails to release hid_device handle. So it's more like an operating system issue, not directly related to MBED though.
