IDEA: Terminate processes and remove USB

<< < (2/2)

Carol Haynes:
I must admit I think unlocker is great (and I use it a lot) but don't be too complacent with it - I'm not sure how cleanly it shuts down file connections with applications and with a USB connection it may lead to data corruption. It is great in a crisis though.

True. That's a consideration with any of the techniques above -- they're all nonstandard methods, but one bonus of Unlocker is that it shows the name of the program that has the file lock (without listing a bunch of other stuff). Then you still have the option to close that program normally. :)

urlwolf:
hmm, closeandEject doesn't see my external HD (d:) at all.
a pity. Maybe it's handle.exe's fault? By the way, i extracted handle.exe in the same dir where CaE is... not sure if that's enough or if I should add it somewhere in the PATH...

There's also OpenedFilesView at http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/opened_files_view.html.
