hi
i want to enable/disable usb using software device driver
how can i do this?
You could set the USB controller drivers to be disabled.
How does that sound as a simple solution?

What are you trying to prevent? If the owner of the computer wants to use USB, it’s not up to you to block him.
If you really want to prevent USB use totally, the only way is to pack the USB sockets with silicone sealant.

So if by “usb” you really mean “removable media” then

They would have to be an administrator.
but what if anyone else disable your driver?
With all due respect, we would appreciate it if you put a BIT more effort into describing your problem… if you expect us to put effort into answering your question or providing you advice.
My favorite solution of all time.

Actually, there are companies that have plugs for USB sockets that detect if
they are removed. They are not cheap and I have not looked for a while,
but they were sold for security situations. You can in theory remove the
plug to put in a device, but alarms start going off, and the places I have
seen them grim people carrying firearms appear immediately.
