Increase Maximum File Transfer size of USB in Windows 7

In Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2, the maximum transfer size of USB is set to 64 KB. It means at one instant, maximum file size to be transferred from Windows 7 Computer to USB Devices is 64 KB. To override that restriction, Microsoft released a hotfix to increase the maximum transfer size from 64 kilobytes (KB) to 2 megabytes (MB) in the Usbstor.sys driver.
