Windows Explorer stops responding on a Windows Vista-based computer when you try to open a file or a folder that resides on a Sony Ultra Portable universal serial bus drive
When you try to open a file or a folder on an external Sony Ultra Portable universal serial bus (USB) drive (model VGP-UHDP04) that is connected to a Windows Vista-based computer, you cannot access the file or the folder. Additionally, Windows Explorer stops responding. This problem occurs after you wake the Windows Vista-based computer from hibernation.
This issue occurs because the USB port on the Windows Vista-based computer cannot detect the device speed of the USB drive.
To work around this issue, use one of the following methods.
Method 1
Disconnect the USB drive before you put the Windows Vista-based computer in hibernation.
Method 2
Disable hibernation on the Windows Vista-based computer. To do this, follow these steps:
- Click Start

didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're

edits), please consult a professional.
