USB Safely Remove 5.0 released!

The new version includes significantly improved device menu, unicode support, lots of new options and bug fixes.  Download now or read more below.

The new stopping menu

The stopping menu was reworked to give you more convenience and control, especially when you have many drives. Now it's more informative and powerful like the menu in Zentimo but we tried to make it as simple as possible. Anyway there's always the options to return the look and feel of 4.x versions if you prefer it. 

Now the menu lets you see the device's size and free\occupied space on it.
And you can either browse the drive contents in your file manager in a click:
Or eject card readers memory card right in the menu:
But that's not all the novelties in the menu, read more below about bunch of the new customization options!

Improved Options look and feel

Full Unicode support

Now you can choose any language supported by the program and it will be displayed correctly even if your system language is different. A great news for people who are using non-Latin characters on their computers since they will never have issues with garbled texts in the program. If you are an English-speaking user you get no benefits from this feature... apart from you may have fun changing the program language to Arabic or Chinese. They look so cool :)

"Apply" button

Using this button in the device properties or program options dialogs you can apply the changed settings and see how they influence the program without closing the options dialog

New options

We analyzed your requests and added many options to configure the menu you asked us about. Now you can change the device icon size, hide or display storage device names or volume rows and etc. Those who have many storage devices might like these options since they let them reduce the space that the menu occupies on the screen.
E.g. by disabling the "Display storage device name" option you can make the menu more compact (but still informative), which is useful if you have lots of external drives:
Or disable the "Display storage device volume" option to get the plain old look and feel:
And finally there's now an option for true ascetics: the "Simple menu" that will remove all control buttons at all:
Note that the control buttons don't go forever but they are available from the menu called with right click to the system tray icon:
Another new option is device sorting in the menu. The devices are now sorted by drive letter by default, but you can set sorting by device name or volume label as well.
