Answer» Please show Me how to safely remove a USB Pen Drive
Thank YouClick on the icons in the lower right hand CORNER and select Safely remove hardware. It's a small icon showing a green ARROW and a USB picture. On other versions of OS it will appear differently.The icon SuperDave REFERS to looks like this on Windows 7:
After you click on that icon, there are times when you will NOT get the message saying it is now safe to remove the USB device. In that CASE, close any programs that were using the device and then wait 15 or 20 seconds to make sure all delayed writes to the USB device have been completed. At that point, you should be Ok to unplug regardless.
