Windows 10: No Safely remove notifiction pop up, HAVE Icon

The notification to safely remove hardware pop up box does not appear.
I have the Icon to click , and can see any Usb device , thumb drive or Hard drive.
Just no SAFE TO REMOVE HARDWARE BOX, the devices are removed as they no longer appear but I get no confirmation of removal.
I Have done a SFC no errors. This just started this week, all my other computers are 64 bit and do have the
notification box pop up.
I have tried disabling and re-enabling the Icon , no change.
I have checked a couple other sites, others have the same problem on a 64 bit machine.
Anyone any Ideas ?

No Icon to remove safely remove usb device when on ovi suite

In very critical activities Suite will inform "Do not disconnect your phone", but basically otherwise you can disconnect at any time. Basically it it not recommended to disconnect your phone if there is a progress bar indicating that some activity is not
finished, but even in those cases no harm happens if you disconnect your phone.

Don't worry..Its Normal.. You may get to see this when connected using the 'Mass storage Mode' ...

 

Hi there. Welcome to the forums. In Device Manager (Windows Key/X) > Right click on the device. What do you get?

 

Did the balloon notification appear before?

If yes, some windows update( Microsoft Security Essentials/Windows Defender) could have caused it. It was so in Windows 7 sometime ago.

A later update had fixed the problem and the balloon notification reappeared.

If your problem is similar to this one, then you may have to wait for a future update to undo the disappearance.

If you hadn't updated Windows Defender update it now and check whether the message balloon reappears.

 

Yes the Balloon notification was working a week ago then stopped.
I also suspect it was an update, I just didnt know if it was something else.
I update defender quite often and have the latest update as of today 3-28-17 ,still the same
thanks for the info
Just another windows quirk

Also all my usb devices show up in device manager and Policies are set for Quick removal
and they are ejected correctly just no


copied from another machine

 

I had to do this when I had the same problem.
For safe eject USB notification missing:• Press keyboard "win + R"• Type "regedit"• Search the value "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Notification\Settings\Microsoft.Explore r.Notification.{...}"• If you REG_DWORD 0x00000001(0) set "0" you can double click on value. Set the value data to "1"• Click "OK"

 

That worked
Thank you so much!
I did notice that there were 3 entry's for the NOTIFICATION all with dword of zero
I changed the first one to a 1
and deleted the other two that were "0"
rebooted and "Safely remove hardware" box is back
Thanks again

 

Glad to hear all is now working. *Smile
