What is the difference between two types of questions that I gave above? They seems to have similar meaning.

Hi,

I think what you need here is: Why did you use? and Why do you use?. The first is past and the second is present.

No. I just found a sentence that used "Why do you used?". So, is that sentence grammatically error?
