    flash drive eject after opeining files

    I often open files on a flash drive for printing. When I am finished printing, unless I eject the drive, each time I open an app and a file on another drive, I get a message that the flash drive cannot be found. If I opened 5 files for printing and don't
    eject the flash drive I get 5 messages, 1 for each, that the drive cannot be found..

    Is there a setting to automatically eject the flash drive when I am finished?

    Thaks,

    John

    Ejecting Hard Drives and Flash Drives .....

    Windows 10 has trouble ejecting USB hard drives & flash drives - how to fix?

    Yes because it ejects or stops read/write from all media during a shutdown or restart.

    Logging Out might eject a working USB drive. But Windows can read and write to devices at the Login Screen, as the Windows kernel has remained loaded. Why not just use the Flash Icon to eject media? But it depends on what is reading and writing to the device,
    Example: USB flash drive.
