Hi Norman,
Normally when you write to an USB drive, you must safely remove the
drive otherwise you may lose data or corrupt the drive in some way.
However, if you just read a flash drive and don't write to it, it is
usually safe just to remove it.
I always in either case do a safely remove any of my USB drive just
as a precaution since I have a lot of data on them.
Take care.
Lennie

Stupid question.
Why can't you just pull it out?
That's the way I've allways done it.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] need help on how to safely remove USB thumb drive
under Windows 7
Hi all,
I am running JAWS V. 13 under Windows 7. I would greatly appreciate if
someone could tell me whether there exists a JAWS keystroke to safely remove
my USB thumb drive. Under Windows XP, one could go into the system tray via
insert plus F-12 to get to the safely remove button. However, this does not
work in Windows 7. Thanks for any help.
cheers,
Rob
