I think all the laptop manufacturers are closely depending on windows and don't enable the device mode (OTG) or I can say they don't put the OTG supported controller :(.
It's the latter, there is no OTG supported controller in your laptop, nor would it ever make sense to add such a thing for a "normal" consumer device as there is nothing that anyone could plug into their laptop in that mode that would work. Now with USB-C connections, and newer hardware, we might see this happening in a year or so, but give companies time to get the hardware made properly, it's still not quite done... good luck! greg k-h
