I have finally found a way to get rid of the annoying Safely Remove Hardware icon in the Task Tray that consistently works on my little computer.

It is this batch file:
https://www.raymond.cc/blog/download/did/581/
from:
https://www.raymond.cc/blog/hide-or-remove-safely-remove-hardware-tray-icon/

but I now need a little help please ....
It tells me to add the batch file to the Start folder but I am flummoxed and don't have a clue how to do that.
As it is I have to run it at each start-up and the fleeting black screen with white text comes and goes before I can read it properly.

You lot have helped me so many times here I'm hoping you can this time too please :)

Sounds like they want you to put in the Startup Folder at: C:\Users\"your user name"\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup then leave a shortcut to it in there.

Good Luck
