Description
Persistent Agent Causing Delay in Windows Detecting USB Flash Drives

Scope
Version:   Persistent Agent versions prior to 4.1.1.24.
Solution
Version:  Persistent Agent versions prior to 4.1.1.24.

Issue:  Persistent Agent has significant delay in the machine reading/accessing and ejecting USB flash drives.

Solution:  Upgrade Persistent Agent to version 4.1.1.24 or greater

From 4.1.1.24 release notes. 

"Changed the Windows Persistent Agent to postpone reacting to a USB device being added to the host. 
Previously, when the Persistent Agent was running, USB devices added to a host were slow to be detected by the Windows Operating System."
