Quickly Eject USB Flash Drive in Windows
Microsoft updates for Windows 10 seem endless. Most users don’t bother reading the update notes about what has changed or been added — myself included.
Today, we noticed the eject feature in the Windows taskbar that allows you to quickly unmount USB flash drives.
This isn’t breaking news — just a quick post about a feature you may not have noticed.
