You must do this every time you want to remove a Flash Drive or you may corrupt the Flash Drive
- Save and close any open files using the red X.
- Go to the Windows Start button in the lower left corner of your screen.
- Click on “Computer”
- In the right side of the window, click on “Removable Disk (E:)” to highlight it.
- Then click in the blue menu bar where it says “Eject”
- A small box will appear in the very bottom of your screen that says:
- Safe To Remove Hardware
- Only after you see this message can you remove the Flash Drive or you may corrupt it and lose all your files. Ugh!!!!
- You will notice that the icon for your Removable Disk disappears from your screen.
