Hi. Since today I found an unknown device in the device manager. I don't know what to do now. Please help me.

Win 7 Prof. x64, Wireshark 2.6.6, USBPcap 1.2.0.4

This is first time I see such issue. Is this device related to some external USB hub or is it internal to the computer? Can you try updating and/or uninstalling the driver in the Device Manager?

False alarm. It seems that a defective Bluetooth dongle caused several strange effects within the system. Removing it and rebooting removed the unknown device. It appeared weirdly later after a reboot but vanished. I don't know what this behaviour means. Sorry for the hassle.
