Windows 10: Lexor flashdrive will not eject

Taskbar process for ejecting states file in use and will not allow me to eject. This happened a few weeks ago and to resolve I switched to a different admin account and it ejected. This time that solution does not work. If I simply turn off and remove the Fdrive will that save its contents? A different Fdrive does not have that problem, so if I copy all contents of Lexor is it likely the problem will also transfer to it?

Missing Eject in "Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media" List

Hi Tze Lin Wong,

The configuration to this can be found under settings. To enable this feature follow these steps:

1. Right-click the taskbar and select Taskbar settings.
   
2. Under Notification Area, choose
   Select which icons appear on the taskbar.
3. Scroll to Windows Explorer: Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media
   and turn it on.

If this doesn't work, I suggest that you check with your USB drive manufacturer for new drivers or other updates.

All the best.
