I don’t fucking know why I can’t eject USB hard drives. I installed the SysInternals apps, and best they can tell me is that Dropbox is fucking with the drives. I explicitly told Dropbox to not fuck with USB drives. I don’t know who’s lying, I just want whoever is fucking with the drives to stop fucking with the drives, OK??? OK.

    Antivirus, Windows Defender, Bitlocker…

    Shall I continue?

    Try OpenFilesViewer and Process Explorer, amongst a myriad of other SysInternals utilities…

      Told ya, Process Explorer just told me nothing, except Dropbox maybe.

      But it doesn’t change the usage scenario. I don’t care what programs are using the drive. I just need to tell them to fuck off, I need to unplug this drive at this moment.

        Whelp, time to shut down the whole computer! (Or just yank it and hope you didn’t do anything bad, lol)
