Re: Issue on Safety remove hardware from USB

That just means there is a file or directory still in use. Perhaps the last 'save as' location.

A Reboot *should* allow it to safely be stopped, if you can not find the application that is still using a file or folder.

That depends on if you can find the cause or not.
If you can determine that it was a certain program's last 'save as' location, simply open that program and save a file somewhere else that isn't going to keep the USB device in use.

Re: Issue on Safety remove hardware from USB

What is the USB device?

Maybe find the process/program using the drive and stop that.
