Please, add an 'Unlocker' feature (I beg of you)
Posted: Sep 16th, 2009, 3:08 am
Hello,
Well the desperate title of this topic say it all.
Here is my typical scenario:
USBSafelyRemove is 95% perfect for all my needs and I can't think of any other feature I need EXCEPT this 'Unlocker' feature. On my Windows XP I have installed a popular shell context menu app called Unlocker that I use frequently. Sometimes when trying to stop my 2.5 external hdd with USBSafelyRemove it notifies me that Explorer.exe is locking the process, this is sometimes and not always. I always sensibly close all folders and or file managers connected to this drive but this damn explorer process is sometimes still left behind as a child process which I can unlock easily with Unlocker with a right-click on the drive in My Computer. Currently in USBSafelyRemove the only option is to 'Force Stop' or even worse 'Kill process' and this is not sufficient; the latter working only to unnecessarily restart the whole of Windows Explorer.
I just propose if USBSafelyRemove had the same 'unlocker' feature just like Unlocker's.
please share with me your support and views
