I also noticed on some occasions it was linked to a specific file type, so I copy these individually. Also, I don't think its specifically related to Explorer as I use Multi Commander to copy data.
I'm inclined to think that the problem is more likely to be with the USB device and/or port than the PC or laptop.

It could be that the problem is as
described in over there, in the knowledge base.

I'm seeing this problem: the hard disk shows 100% disk usage in the task manager, but there is no process accessing the disk anymore. The copy process halts; maybe because of this problem, or it causes this problem.
I've flipped the setting in the registry.
I've never had this problem with Windows 7 or 10 up until now, and I've been using many USB drivers and sticks without problems, copying sometimes hundreds of gigabytes.
Maybe this is caused by the anniversary update.
