very often my explorer freezes when accessing usb (sometimes I have to restart it, sometimes the not responding goes away in a few seconds) and today was the worst case (might have been cause i was multitasking) I was downloading stuff with qbittorrent, had chrome open with about 2 tabs and when i accessed my usb my explorer completely froze, i tried restarting with task manager but didnt work, so i CHOKED THE PC (hold down power button) and am now doing a chkdsk scan on my usb

  • I would guess either a bad USB stick or a [third party shell extension](https://superuser.com/questions/286000/how-to-list-explorer-extensions-and-disable-them). – Señor CMasMas Oct 05 '21 at 17:23
