I am using Windows 10 Pro Build 19013.vb_release.191025-1609. Now I cannot use external hard drives.

When plugging external hard drive I can hear the sound of something is connected. But, the drive never displayed in This PC.

Checking Disk Management, the disk is not even there.

Checking Device Manager, one device is malfunction: USB Attached SCSI (UAS) Mass Storage Device.

The device status is:

"

This device cannot start. (Code 10)

{Not Enough Quota}

Not enough virtual memory or paging file quota is available to complete the specified operation.

"

I don't understand this error.

EDIT: This appears to have now been fixed in the following build

https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2020/01/30/announcing-windows-10-insider-preview-build-19555/

It looks like this issue is acknowledged in the 'Known Issues' section of the latest Insider build. 

https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2019/11/19/announcing-windows-10-insider-preview-build-19028/

So at least we know Microsoft is aware of the problem and we'll hopefully see it fixed soon. The bad news is, of course, that it's not fixed yet.

    The uaspstor.sys in build 19555 only fixes (Code 10) error.

    The second problem with the device disconnecting in the middle of a backup is back with build 19559.1000 released today.

    I think they still miss some updates in the driver, when you look at the size of the file the latests one is only 75040 Bytes while the one in 18362.387 is 79376 Bytes.
