Why is it taking so long to transfer files from SD card in Windows 10

Ever since I upgraded to Windows 10 it takes HOURS to transfer even small files from my camera's SD card to the computer's hard drive via the built-in card reader.

The "speed" meter barely goes above 300 KBS per second.

It is a SanDisk 32GB extreme card.

Try updating your sd card readers driver, it is most likely using a generic driver.
