Hello,
Sometimes when I try to remove a USB flash drive by clicking the "Safely Remove Hardware" icon, a popup message appears saying something like "This drive cannot be removed right now, as it is being used by another process. Please try again later."
But when this popup appears it does so at times when the Task Manager shows that no applications are running.
When that happens the only way I know of to remove the flash drive is to either reboot or shut down the PC.
Is there any other way to safely remove the flash drive when I can find nothing for which it is being used?
