    Safely Remove Hardware notification not displayed


    When I use the Safely Remove Hardware to remove, for example a USB flash drive, I do not get the notification that the device can be removed. I used to get this in Win 8.1 and I still get it in Win 7.

    Is there a way to enable the message? (I know a lot of people don't want the message but I do).

    :)

    Safe to remove hardware message no longer shows in Windows 10 Pro x64

    need registry key to enable "safe to remove hardware" message in Windows 10. This message no longer appears after "Safely remove hardware and eject media" is selected from the notification area's icon. The system is working properly but is simply not displaying
    the "safe to remove message" which it previously did.

    Safely Remove Hardware Notification

    Hi,

    We suggest you to run the automatic troubleshooter. To do so, kindly follow the steps below:

    • Right click on Start Menu -> Control Panel -> In
      Category, choose Small icons -> Troubleshooting ->
      Hardware and Sound -> Hardware and Devices.
    • It will open a window to run the troubleshooter and hit Next.
    Once the scan is completed, it will present you with a report. The troubleshooter will try to fix the problem for you.

    If the issue persists, you can perform a System Restore.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Thanks.

    Had the same problem. Solved as follows:

    -Click on Windows Start icon
    -Click on Settings
    -Click on Notifications & actions
    -Under Notifications put 'Show app notification' to ON

    Mine is already on. So that is not the problem.

    Just checked my "Preview" version and it does not show the message either when I use Safely Remove Hardware.
