I was trying to copy from the HD onto the USB stick. And bo, I didn't take
heed to which specific file.
You see, to keep it simple I just mentioned that one USB stick. Over time
(a few months) I had the same problem with other sticks and USB drives,
trying to copy different files. All of those files (10's of gigabytes) I
just copied onto an USB drive (which earlier also caused the error to be
thrown)
IOW, I think I can safely say that neither the USB stick and drives nor the
files on the HD where the cause of the problem. To many combinations that
all failed.

With all due respect : read the first paragraph.

Thats a "members only" link I'm afraid (I'm asked to login to some MS
thing).
