Re: Safely removing USB Devices
kelsey trevett <trevk007@...>
Go to my computer, find the disk. Without pressing enter on the disk, press applications key and find eject. Press that. If nothing pops up on your screen, it is safe to remove the disk.

Re: Safely removing USB Devices
Bill White <billwhite92701@...>
Hi, Tom. If you are using Windows 7, the following may help:
The "Safely Remove Hardware" icon can sometimes disappear from the notification area. Even though there are devices installed that require it - it's nowhere to be found. When this happens, you may perform the following steps: 1. Open the Run command by pressing the Windows logo key +R. 2. Enter the following command and hit Enter: RunDll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL hotplug.dll This will bring up the "Safely Remove Hardware" dialog box: From this dialog box you can click on the device you want to remove, andpress Stop. Once Windows is done with it, you can then remove the device. If it happens often enough, you can create a desktop shortcut for the "safely remove hardware" command. Right click on your desktop, click New, and then click Shortcut. In the resulting dialog box enter the following command: RunDll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL hotplug.dll Click Next and change the shortcut name to Safely Remove Hardware. Click Finish.

Since your problem clearly occurred with the latest upgrade, you might want to back out by installing version 13 from scratch and updating to one upgrade less, and re-checking. Once you've validated that your problem has disappeared, please report your findings to FS. Other than that, I can't help.
