Windows will not release my externals drive - device is busy
I clone my OS and, long after it's done, I still can't release the clone because I get a message that says the device is still in use (but it's not as far as I can tell). My understanding is that this feature is used to prevent disconnecting a device while it is being read to or from. Therefore, is it OK to disconnect the drive even though I'm getting that message? In my case, waiting for hours still won't allow me to release (disconnect) my clone.
