USB Safely Remove

By now, regardless of what type of PC user you are, you must have crossed paths with the Safely Remove Hardware feature integrated into the Windows OS. USB Safely Remove is just the same, but better. How so, you ask? Well, it expands and improves Microsoft's idea into something more flexible and user-friendly. Regardless of what USB device you have plugged in, by using this particular app, you'll ultimately gain more control over it.

Since we're talking about a tool before anything else, one must agree that there would be a little interest in developing a detailed interface. Instead, you'll be met by a simplistic, yet functional look. The program displays all connected devices and hides those that are not in use, mostly SD card readers. Using the app is intuitive. All the menus and submenus are accurately placed where one would expect them to be. There aren't any labeling problems. Everything is also within reach in the same clean app interface.

The most intriguing of features, related to the device safe removal action, is the usage of hotkeys for quick remove actions. As a result, you won't have to deal with all those pesky menus you would have had to before. Simply hit your preset key combo and the device will be ready for ejection. Each device has its own set of rules and options that can be altered to one's liking. The key combination is also unique to each connected device.

The program also features a comprehensive set of options that range from app look and feel themes, and general behavior, to drive letter assignment, autorun rules, hotkeys, and device stop commands. As far as removing your attached device is concerned, USB Safely Remove offers a far more complete experience than the stock OS option.
