When entering Windows Sleep mode and start Windows again my brandnew SanDisk UltraFit 64GB will be diconnected from windows and it took about 5 seconds for reconnecting.
This is really annoying because there is a mounted encrypted VHD on the SanDisk. This lost the connection as well and ask for the paraphrase again.
My good old SanDisk USB2.0 did not lost the connection when awakening from sleep mode.
Any configuration tips that my new USB-Stick do not lost connection as well?
I think that this is an issue with Windows 8.1. What I do is just to change power options and set it to “Never”. It’s not really the fix but it works for me. <img src=“https://imagicon.info/cat/5-43/1.gif”/>
