1. Go to SDXC Card and rigth click, then ''Properties''.
2. In the Hardware bookmark, select SDXC Card and then click on ''Properties'' again (located below).
3. In General bookmark press ''Switch Settings'',
4. Then in Rules (Directives) select ''Better Performance (default)'', and click ok.

lmao

should be more nested properties and settings preferably ending up somewhere in the registry CLSID hell

bear in mind, this is a solution to a problem caused by the card taking too long to power up because it only partially makes contact with the reader

needless to say, it doesn't work, but it does prevent the device from sleeping the card and will cause data corruption if the card loses contact while operating
