Step by Step Detailed Comprehensive Explanation with All CompTIA References:

Analysis of the Problem:

Multiple peripherals are non-functional, and the USB-C hub is a common point of failure.

Option Evaluation:

A. Verify the AC adapter voltage: Power issue could cause shutdowns, not device failure. Incorrect.

B. Repair the operating system: Not relevant since alternate devices are tested. Incorrect.

C. Replace the user's USB-C hub: Faulty hubs cause multiple peripheral failures. Correct.

D. Reinstall the drivers for affected devices: Driver issues wouldn’t affect all peripherals. Incorrect.

E. Make sure the printer is not drawing too much power: This is uncommon for peripherals via a hub. Incorrect.
