I use the freeware utility called USB Disk Ejector http://quick.mixnmojo.com/ and I have used NIRCmd.exe (you'll have to google it, I don't remember the website). I haven't been able to find a way to safely eject a usb drive using just VDS.

Tdk161, If you understand API the GadgetX.dll can do it.

You can use the windows rundll32.exe option also.

"RunDll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL hotplug.dll"

I use that command for windows XP and Windows 7.

Sorry, I think I misunderstood. Are you trying to eject the device automatically?

Hi scotspgc Smile

I already know tjis, and usually use it in my script, I would like when application on usb pen is cloding, show a message box asking to remove usb pen and automaticaly temove it without using external command/application.
But thank you for your help Smile

I'm sorry Tdk161 Embarassed

I'm looking for the source code (in Borland Delphi) in order to eject a USB drive.

This page is in Spanish but it has the source code of an application that does eject (for example) a Pendrive:

http://www.ajpdsoft.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=463

I hope it was usefull for you.

Bye Very Happy

More information:

DLL: hotplug.dll

You can eject pendrive calling "HotPlugEjectDevice" function of hotplug.dll Windows library.
