    Win10 USB Mass Storage Driver USBSTOR.SYS slows my bootup by 30 seconds.


    Hello everyone,


    I use Windows 10. I have an internal SSD drive that hosts Windows and all my apps. I have an external hard drive (USB 3.0 4TB). The external HD is not used by Windows or connected to it in any of the environmental parameters.


    If I unplug my external HD, my system boots in 4 seconds. Plugged in, 34 seconds to boot. And there is nothing on it that windows should be accessing or writing to.


    Very first thing I did, update BIOS, that DOES NOT work.


    Second thing I did, went in the Win10 Registry, disabled USB Mass Storage driver: USBSTOR.SYS. Doing that, system boots in 4 seconds, but now I can't use my external HD because the driver is not loaded!


    I just don't want Windows loading the USB Mass Storage driver until AFTER I log into windows. It's the only other solution I can come up with to stop the insanity of whatever Windows is trying to do to my poor external HD that never bothered anyone!

    :)
