    Problem with ejecting an usb drive


    Good evening, I had a problem where when I was safely ejecting my USB drive, it showed me that the drive was in use and I had to close all the programs which are there in the drive running. No programs were running from the drive. I also tried to look in Task Manager but I couldn't find any tasks which were running. I tried to eject the drive from the disk manager too but it didn't work. Can anyone help me with this problem?

    :)
