USBDeview - Guaranteed eject of your USB drive

@icekin

Try with Unlocker (http://ccollomb.free.fr/unlocker/) first to unlock any file/process handles and then eject the device.

PhilB66:
By the way, is there any way of reconnecting a device after ejecting it without having to pull it out of the USB port and replugging it back in?

I tried it and it couldn't eject a usb hard drive when its contents was displayed in Freecommander. So eject is not guaranteed after all. Too bad.

direnc:
Is such an utility really necessary ? Aren't FAT32 storage devices optimized for quick removal by default ? I just unplug mine as soon as any writing operation is complete. Any of you NTFS formatting drives?

TucknDar:
I can only answer for me, and I'm paranoid, hehe.
