*Needs to combine with EjectUSB

mmm, another small program. I don’t think it’s that necessary though.

Hi WatchUOnline,
No it’s not necessary but makes life much easier than using the Windows alternative. I find lots of little utilities that I think are useful but then don’t use very much. This one gets used a lot when I am working with multiple USB drives.
