Mass storage removable devices hangs my application

Hello everyone,
starting from Windows 8.1 connecting a USB mass storage device that are read only but doesn't have read only flag set in the volume descriptor would cause the system to enumerate the volumes very slowly. This could be solved by turning the Search/Do not
allow locations on removable drives to be added to libraries Group policy on.
This however hangs Windows 10 at startup and if any application tries to access the volume it hangs too for several minutes. And the group policy settings doesn't seem to fix the problem anymore.
Sure this is the device's problem but the driver should not block the system or any other application and if set so it should not attempt to write to the MSC device.
Does anyone experience similar problems, is there some other switch that would help me?
Regards
Honza R.

All drivers are already all up-to-date
I also want to stress that USB mass storage devices are not detected in BIOS, NOR as bootable USB device. So I can't upgrade BIOS even if I wanted to.
have you done >>Clear CMOS Guide<< with power cord removed?
have you tested with mainboard out of PC case placed over wooden table?

  • Z87-G45 USB Mass Storage & other devices not working (except keyboard/mouse)

    My Z87-G45 died on me last month in warranty so I received a replacement one.
    Unfortunatly I'm experiencing mayor USB issues.
    - In Bios mode, no USB mass storage devices are detected (usb stick/disk). USB keyboard and mouse work fine
    - In Windows no USB device except for the keyboard and mouse are detected.
    - Can't see USB Mass Storage Device driver in the USB controllers list
    Installed all latest drivers + CMOS CLEAR just in case. Results stay the same.
    I assume it's best that I return the motherboard?
    Kind regards

  • Nokia 701 mass storage option hang

    hi..
    Whenever i connect my nokia 701 with my computer and choose mass storage option it hang very badly...
    How can i solve this probalam....??
    Moderator's notes: Moved to it's own thread

    Dear Kr_gabani, 
    Welcome to the Nokia forums!
    Could you please try perform a soft reset using the code *#7780# security code 12345 if prompted, this will not delete any data however it will restore your settings to how they where when brand new.
    Please try and replug the device and if it still does not work please go into your computers control panel > devices > uninstall the phone drivers.
    After you have uninstalled the phone drivers please replug your phone and let the drivers reinstall themselves.
    Hopefully this solves your issues with entering mass storage mode. If the issue persists, please dont hesitate to let me know!

  • USB Mass Storage Mode Missing :-(

    I just upgraded? to the Samsung Galaxy S III today and have been very happy for the most part.  However...
    I am EXTREMELY disappointed that the only options to transfer files to the phone/SD Card are to use the MTP and Photo protocols.  I always loved my Android phone...built off of open source software...and using open standards (things like USB Mass Storage).  It is incredibly useful to be able to plug my phone into almost any PC, running any OS, and be able to transfer files to and fro.
    Where is the rest of the uproar?  When are we going to demand that one of the most useful features on our phone be put back.  It was already there...it was already working...and has been dropped for lame, limited use protocols...  Why?  Who is getting paid off?  Why? 
    Bring back USB Mass Storage Mode!!!!

    It is always a good idea to do some research...  I have followed your suggestion and found that Google has two reasons for using MTP instead of USB Mass Storage.  They  are:
      1)  “A main reason for using MTP rather than for example the USB mass-storage device class (MSC) is that the latter operates at the granularity of a mass storage device block (usually in practice, a FAT block), rather than at the logical file level. In other words, the USB mass storage class is designed to give a host computer undifferentiated access to bulk mass storage, such as compact flash, rather than to a file system, which might be safely shared with the target device (except for specific files which the host might be modifying/accessing). In practice, therefore, when a USB host computer has mounted an MSC partition, it assumes absolute control of the storage, which then may not be safely modified by the device without risk of data corruption until the host computer has severed the connection.“  -sombody from Google
      --My Response - "I am totally OK with the SD card not being safe to be mounted.  During the time I choose to be connected (only when transferring files)...I DO want the PC and not the phone to be in complete control of the SD card."
    2)  “MTP is a big improvement over USB mass storage — for devices with lots of internal memory, a manufacturer no longer needs to come up with some hard partition between the USB mass storage and internal storage. Instead, they are all in one partition, with MTP providing access to the directory of media files that would normally be available through USB mass storage. This means there is no longer a need for apps on SD card for such devices, because what used to be the ‘internal SD card’ is in the same partition as where applications are stored. The storage on your device can be used for either applications or media, depending on what you want to put on it. You aren’t stuck with how much space the manufacturer decided to leave for the two areas." -somebody else from Google
      --My Response - "I am completely OK with the removable SD card being treated separately.  That is EXACTLY what I want.  I want to keep MY DATA separate and only on the removable SD card.  And all of the stuff that I don't care about...that can be easily reinstalled (apps and such) on the internal memory.  It is a good design.  The phone has enough internal memory that I don't have any trouble with space for Apps (so not a conern at all)."
      --My Overall Response - "The loss of flexibility, portability, and usefullness does NOT come close to justifying removal of the USB Mass Storage protocol.  I am still VERY disappointed."
    Where is the THUMBS DOWN... and INCORRECT ANSWER?

  • Using Blackberry as a Mass Storage Device is not working at all. Please advise

    It does not show up in My computer.It shows up in the device managers under Universal Serial Bus Controllers as
    Blackberry Smartphone I would like to be able to have access to my media card without  having to use my storage card reader.I went to computer management to see if it is a drive mapping issue, but it does not even show up there so there is no letter to assign.
    I have made sure that The media card is formatted.
    I have a Blackberry 8310
    v4.5.0.81
    Media Support is set to ON
    Mass Storage Mode is ON
    and Auto Enable Mass Storage Mode When Connected is set to YES
    It is a 4GB sandisk micro sd
    The bberry is not locked.
    Encryption mode is not enabled.
    I do not have Acronis installed or an Iso mounters to cause any conflicts.
    I am not using any network drivers.
    Nothing else in plugged into any of the other ports
    There are only two on my laptop and I have tried both usb ports.
    It is plugged directly to a usb port and not into a hub.
    My Computer's OS is XP Pro SP3
    Also to reiterate, I am able to take the card out of the bberry and read it no problem through a card reader, but
    that is annoying since you are supposed to be able to use see the blackberry as a mass storage device through
    explorer.
    And just recently as a test,I tried plugging in another blackberry, a 8800 and that one popped up no problem as a removable device in my computer. What I do not get is why Roxio Media Manager can see the 8310 and copy files over and the device manager has it listed as a smart phone under the Universal Serial Bus Controllers list. This is bizarre.

  • Mass Storage Device: What!?

    Hi,
    When I plug my BB into the USB port to charge I get a pop-up on the BB that asks if I want to turn mass storage mode on.  What does this do exactly?  I always select "no". 
    I have  a 8GB card in it, if that helps. 
    Thanks!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    It asks this question because it depends on what you are doing at that time.  If you are going to be loading/removing applications, songs, pics, or videos to your Micro SD from you computer/desktop manager, you need to turn this mode on by selecting 'YES'.  But, you will be unable to access these things directly on your phone while in this mode. 
    But, if you are simply charging the phone or accessing files stored on your phone and not your 'mass storage device', and want to be able to pick the phone up and listen to songs, or some other app on the SD card, select 'NO' and you will be able to see these things on your phone while charging or syncing on your computer.

  • Time Capsule vs. Other Mass Storage Device

    I am a Mac newby seeking advice.  I recently purchased the MBA below to replace my personal PC.  My previous setup was a desktop with plenty of storage to handle my needs (including iTunes) and I backed up data directly to an external hard drive (I know pretty basic).
    After purchasing the MBA, I realized I do not have enough internal hard drive space to store all of my music and my current external drive is too small for all the media and backup of the MBA.  Also, the point of the MBA is to be mobile. Also, I would like my Sonos music system (with an application similar to iTunes) to be able to access the music library.  Lastly, I have far to many songs purchase outside of iTunes to use iTunes Match.  Therefore, I started seeking wireless alternatives to store my music and backup my MBA.  Although an NAS would probably be ideal, I have found out through trial and error that the basic systems do not work with a MAC and the only ones with a prayer are the more expensive ones (i.e. Synology and QNAPS).  Therefore, I have decided to pursue a more simplified approach.
    My Internet and TV provider is CenturyLink.  Their router is very basic with only 802.11g speed and without any USB ports.  The following configuration has been suggested to my by some more experienced Apple users to provide wireless data access and backup.
    Requesting CenturyLink provide me with a basic modem.
    Purchasing an Airport Extreme (or similar wireless n router with a USB port).
    Connecting the Airport Extreme (or other wireless router) to the basic modem.
    Purchasing a Time Capsule (or other mass storage device).
    Partitioning it using either the specific one for the Time Capsule (or Disk Utility for other mass storage devices) to provide one volume for my media and one for backup using Time Machine.
    Moving the media from my old external drive (which is catalogued with folders for each artist, subfolders for each album and the songs in the subfolders) by connecting the old mass storage device and Time Machine to my MBA and using Finder to do this (see the questions below regarding this).
    Moving/cataloging the media from the Time Capsule (or other mass storage device) by dragging it into the iTunes window.
    Connecting the Time Capsule (or other mass storage device) to the USB port of the Airport Extreme (or other wireless router).
    Setting up Time Machine to use the volume partitioned for backups.
    Possibly having to move cataloging files from my iTunes, Music folder to the external drive and pointing iTunes to the Time Capsule (or other mass storage device) through Preferences, Advanced to access the music.
    Overall, I am concerned with the total cost.  I just spent a lot of money, not only purchasing the MBA, but also the iPad 3 and upgrading my cell phone to the iPhone 5 (I skipped the 4).  It seems that by the time I purchase an Airport Extreme and a Time Capsule, I could also have just bought a NAS like the Synology 213 with 2 X 1TB drives, connect it to the existing wireless router via ethernet connections and have a more comprehensive solution.  Based upon these instructions and cost concerns (and bad experience), I have several questions related to this.
    Does this configuration and these instructions make sense, including those for moving and accessing my music files through iTunes (i.e. will it work)?
    Are both the Airport Extreme and Time Capsule necessary to make this work easily or can I purchase alternatives to either or each and if so, what is recommended?  If they are necessary, would you recommend doing this or buying one of the aforementioned NAS's to a Mac newby?
    Given the file structure for my music on the old external mass storage drive, can I simply move the folders over with the subfolders containing the musice files in them or do I have to literally enter into each subfolder, select all and move them subfolder by subfolder (i.e. album by album)?
    Am I missing something totally better and easier solution?
    I would be massively grateful to anyone who can provide some good answers, advice and guidance.  I am about to pull my hair out!!!!
    Thanks,
    WinoSkiBoy

    They both said about the same thing except the Apple Store business tech said to buy an Airport Extreme and just attach a partitioned external third party HDD to it.
    Except that is flakey for TM backup..
    http://pondini.org/TM/Airport.html
    And slow as the proverbial dog.. although I guess the dog is old.
    And totally inadequate as a media store or server.
    Apple's pricing is pretty cunning.. I really doubt you are going to find a cheaper unit to do both wireless and TM backups than the TC. And it is a perfectly good device to do that. It is good to have in the network. And Apple sure make their products work with other apple products.. so it does work better than other similar cost products.. although you miss a lot of features that Apple predecided for you.
    But I don't think anyone has the ideal solution to your problem. Apple believe in cloud. And if you have fibre internet that will work really well.. forks out your money and apple will store your stuff. But for the real world most of us do not have internet connection even a fraction of speed required. And it can be another decade before we will. We need a box that is half way between a TC and media PC, a file store and a NAS. Will Apple make one.. ?? I don't think so.. They believe in cloud..
    You can make the missing link one yourself. If you are so inclined.. A HP microserver running freeNAS can do TM backups and makes an excellent media store because it can do AFP. You can put a graphics card in it and plug it into your TV. You can use it with a airport extreme. But you will need a degree in Geek.. !! The synology is a preconfigured form of that.. No Geekdom required. Synology seems to have the upper hand.. this week.
    Let me make a suggestion.. Figure out if you are going to jump into the Apple way of doing stuff.. which is basically itunes on computer as a server.. and the whole network.. working as part of this.. so any media is pushed from a store in itunes.. whether local or internet..  if you want to do it that way.. getting something other than the air to run itunes is well worth it. That is what a NAS cannot do.. it cannot be a media player.
    Or you do hybrid.. ie you don't use put all your media into itunes, you use a bit of this and bit of something else.. As long as that can play files.. stored on NAS or even on the TC without the itunes requirement.. It won't be as pretty. But it isn't hard to get working.. as long as you accept this isn't going to be the perfect Apple solution.

  • USB Mass Storage device problem

    Hello, I cant use my USB mass storage device in my computer, it is a SanDisk ImageMate CF/SM unit, which works perfectly in every other computer I have tried it, but in this one it hangs while accessing the device, and in linux, it hangs while mounting it (the same thing).
    I dont know what might the problem be but some other people have seen the same problem, perhaps someone here can help me.

    Yeah, I though so, but first I wanted to know what might be causing this incompatibility, in the linux posts people have said that it is a nForce2 generic problem, perhaps a big nvidia bug? heh

  • USB Mass Storage Device won't Eject/Unmount

    My brother bought a Sanyo ICR-B180NX digital voice recorder last year to use with his iBook. It was working very well up until about August of 2005. At that point, the recorder would mount on the desktop, and he could get all the files off (it records direct to MP3 format rather than WMV, so he can edit his files very easily), but when it came time to eject it, the device icon would disappear and then immediately re-appear on the desktop. The display on the voice recorder remained static at the "Connect" screen.
    I believe this happened in conjunction with some sort of OS update, as it was a "sudden" thing. We can't quite recall what happened between the times it worked and the time it stopped working.
    I have tried the device on a PC, and it works the way it should, so I don't believe there's anything wrong with it.
    Now, I know the system requirements on the website say that you must have Windows, but a statement from a support company (we returned it to the place where we got it, and they sent it out for repairs, and it came back with a letter) states that the device does act as a generic Mass Storage device, and thus may work with most systems.
    All my other USB storage devices (ie. SanDisk 12-in-1 card reader, SanDisk Cruzer Titanium 2GB, iPod Photo), and FireWire devices (ie. WiebeTech TrayDock Extreme) work fine and unmount fine.
    Does anyone know of any changes to the way Mass Storage devices are ejected in the current iteration of the OS? I haven't had a chance to test the device under an older OS, but will soon.
    Alternately, if anyone has any suggestions regarding replacements (not really looking forward to that, given this recorder cost almost $300CAD), let me know. We need a device that can plug in via USB and transfer files to his iBook which he can edit together (he's a newspaper reporter in training, and needs to edit the interviews to take out such things like dead air, etc).
    Thanks!
    Mike Ma.

    Hi
    +USB mass storage device. An error occurred during the installation of the device the data is invalid+
    This typical error message appears if the installation of external USB devices failed.
    Why? This is not easy to say
    What you could do firstly is to clean your registry using the freeware software called CCleaner (Google for that).
    Install it and clean your OS and the registry entries.
    After cleaning access the device manager and remove all USB root hubs and all USB Host controllers from the device list and reboot the notebook.
    New reboot should cause a new installation of USB drivers.
    Finally try to connect and try to install your external USB devices again.

  • Mass Storage Driver Severe Crash - USB Mass Storage device useless

    I am running the latest, updated version of OSX Leopard; Hardware Growler; and Parallels Desktop. Today, as I was doing a very resource-intensive task on Windows XP - via parallels - I plugged in my Samsung M610 to try to access the memory card. I then closed Windows XP, and noticed that my cpu was still registering at 100% output. Opening Activity Monitor and looking at the processes there, I saw that Mass Storage was taking 100.00 units of CPU output, and was not responding, I immediately clicked end process. Much to my dismay however, Activity Monitor then proceeded to lock up, so I forced it to quit, which caused finder to lock up in turn. Throughout this time, my cpu was still working overtime, so I decided to power the computer off. Upon rebooting and much "whew"-ing I tried to plug my Cell Phone in again; as usual Hardware Growler notified me of the connection and it's details, however, confusingly finder had no knowledge of any mass storage connection. After multiple connects and reconnects, testing all USB ports on my MBP (and being annoyed by the system telling me to properly find and eject hardware before removing it, which I suppose I should take as a good sign) my memory card remained invisible to finder. Hardware growler continues to perfectly recognize the device connection.
    The most odd thing about this particular problem, is that other USB devices are recognized... at least one other Mass storage device is, but I have only one other device to test at the moment.... Any help would be greatly appreciated.
