    Removable Storage Service doesn't start sometimes

    Removable Storage
    Service
    System    Error    None

    It is a usb drive on which I have my portable office. I keep it plugged to keep my browsers, email client and security apps updated. I didn't have this problem last year.

    That is the error  that occurs sometimes. I have not found a reason for it.  Most of the time a reboot fixes it. The system freezes and I have the eternal hourglass and I wait and wait. I get up make coffee and wait more. Finally I do a hard boot. What could be the reason for it. Some conflict of programs I have.  I reinstall my OS each new year. This is the first year that I have had the error.

    Turn off indexing service on all your hard drives...re-boot.

      Howdy, thank you. I thought that I had turned it off, and turned off Systm Restore on the three non system partitions. The last i  thought I'd check. Did some update of Microsoft turn those on? Or maybe I am losing my brain. I followed your instruction. I rebooted.  I lowered the space for SR on my C drive;  I use ERUNT  anyway. I really dont need the indexing service; I use Copernic. I'll get back to you with the result.  I usually don't go more than two hours or four without the problem occurring. Thank you. The beginning of the year I turned off the Indexing Service and the SR monitoring of D, E, F drives.I believe I should turn off Auto Update.

        Yes it's a true shame about CastleCops...lots of good people and hard work...

        I believe it was LockerGnome.

          I liked the old Lockergnome. Pirillo has turned another direction, one I don't like.  But Lockergnome, Wilders, Bleeping Computer, AumHa, Tech Support Guy, here ,and other forums have given me a substantial free education. I live in the science fiction world of my youth now.  I read more than I post. Sometimes I can even help someone.  Most of the time I read the answers to questions by other and learn a lot.
