What are people saying about USB Safely Remove

Daniel H I already own this application from previous and I like it. I bought it because my original XP Safely Remove option disappeared from XP SP3 after installing some Windows update and I was not able to recover it even from backup, moreover my PC crashed then randomly while removing USBs with BSOD.
The advantage is that there are a lot of translations provided so prog communicates with your mothers tongue, the usage is simple and GUI nice. Continuosly updated. So you do not get 2007 prog in 2009 as sometimes happen :) Worth its price, at least for me.

Sam Cal Just tried the free DL version. I'd buy the program right noe if the the link worked.

Although I have no issues with the standard Windows USB tray utils, this program offers some very nice options. For one thing, instantly see if any USB drives have AutoRun enabled - a very serious security threat. Change the drive letters very easily; mount the frive letter as a folder; and get a LOT of technical properies info for each USB device and copy to clipboard.

Duane PDX I used to just HATE the way the built-in XP function worked and bought an earlier version of USB Safely Remove well over a year ago. It works so much better than Microsoft's lame version. I upgraded recently and like the new version even better. Great program and definitely worth the price.

Kevin Andresen My problem was a combination floppy-drive/USB multi-card reader. After I was done reading a flash card, I'd use the XP icon to remove the card; fine. But I'd have to reboot to get the use of the card reader again. I just tried the download and not only did it work, it warned me that restarting the reader would restart some kind of USB printer driver. Scary, but it gave me a possible explanation for XP's default behavior. This was just part of the full explanations and options I was given. I'd call it generous hand-holding. I'm buying mine now.

Michael Mortimer Does a single purchase allow me to install it on the four computers I am running, or do I have to buy 4 separate licenses?

I ask because I tire of spending thousands of dollars each year for separate licenses of some great programs I own.

So I no longer buy programs that allow install on one computer.

Thanks.

Igor Tkachenko Hello Peter,

Thank you for the kind words!

We will consider adding some new icons and maybe icon of eReaders as well, however currently you can search in Google images for eReader icon and upload it to the program by yourself. It's easy, just go to device properties in the program, click "Change" button and then click "Load Custom Image" button at the bottom of the window with icons. You can upload an image of any size, the program will resize it automatically.

Michael Mortimer Thanks Igor. I downloaded and installed the program.

It has so many additional options and features compared to the limited Windows XP program.

I like being able to name the drives so I don't have to remember which drive is which when plugged in. At any one time I might have five or so USB devices connected, such as thumb drives, external hard disks, printer, etc.

Also, the unmounting is easy to do. And more efficient.

Made the purchase, just in time since the Bits special ends in about 45 minutes.

K H I was lucky enough to get a free license for version 4.1.5.806 and for the most part I like this little treasure very much. A very nice improvement over Window's version. I now know exactly which drive I'm trying to remove and even when I use the same slot for different flash drives, USB Safely Remove recognizes it and gives the correct name.

There is one thing I would love to see change. I dislike having an Explorer window pop up every time I plug in a device. I haven't been able to find a way to turn it off - or to change the view or the position of the window so that it corresponds to the view and position that, on my system, is the normal one for Explorer. I did try entering an alternative file manager (Xplorer2) but that option doesn't seem to work. Any chance for future changes to the current behavior?

Igor Tkachenko K H, does this problem hapen when you uninstall USB Safely Remove?
Crystal Rich, Ltd - Dec 1 2009 at 7:20am Copy Link
0
K H I am not sure what you are asking. I have never uninstalled it. If I uninstalled, it wouldn't be there so it wouldn't happen.

BEFORE I installed USB Safely Remove there was only the Windows box that popped up to allow me to choose which USB to remove. Windows Explorer never appeared unless I opened it myself and, when I did, it showed up in folder view - just the way I like it - and on my second screen - just where I want it.

I haven't thought of this as a "problem" with your nice software, just the normal behavior of the program. I was only saying that I would prefer Explorer not open at all and if it absolutely MUST, then open it in my preferred view - so I don't have to reset it again and again and again.

Igor Tkachenko The program by default doesn't display Explorer on external drive connection. However it's possible to setup this action in the program so probably you checked it on accidentally. Go to the program options, switch to global autorun tab and disable (or remove) Exporer process from the list of processes to launch after device connection.

K H Nothing was ever listed in the processes to launch list. Also, I no longer have access to the program at all. AVAST had it for breakfast this morning. I have reported it as a false positive but I'm still without the application and reinstalling will not help until they fix the issue.

Rick Truell K H: The Explorer window that pops up when you insert a device has nothing to do with USB Safely Remove. Somewhere along the way you responded to Windows' Autorun feature in a way that causes this to happen. I have the same problem with one...and *only one*...of my external USB devices (of which I currently have 8), and it started *before* I installed USB Safely Remove. I wish I knew what I did to cause this to happen, but I'm willing to bet good money (and lots of it!!) that it'll take reinstalling Windows to "fix" it :-(

Igor Tkachenko K H, Rick True: If you are using Windows Vista or 7, you can disable this Windows behavior with this way: open Control Panel, type "autorun" in the search bar, open Autorun applet (big green link "Autorun") here you will see the list of action for different kind of contents. Either disable autorun at all by the option in the top of the Window or check what you have assigned to autorun for different types of content and uncheck running Explorer.

If you are using Win XP I'd recommend you using TweakUI for disabling autorun and this article: http://ask-leo.com/how_do...ws_xp.html

Hope this helps.

H. H. I bought usb safely remove at the last bitsdujour offer, and I've to say, it is a really useful piece of software. It makes handling of usb- devices easier - and much faster, especially when one want to disconnect them - a"must have utility". The reasonable price, user friendly license (at the last offer one-user license, life-time updates) are a beating argument for buying. I really can reccomend usb safely remove.
with kind regards

Igor Tkachenko >Also, any idea of the price of Zentimo? Would it be around the same price as USB Safetly Remove?
Well, actually this question doesn't fit this topic, but I'll answer anyway. We are planning to release a Zentimo in a month approximately. The price for it would be higher (about $30), but for already registered users of USB Safely Remove we will provide significant discounts.

Actually Zentimo is not a replacement for 'USB Safely Remove', it's just a program with more features... but a bit more complex. So some people will choose USB Safely Remove (as they don't need extra features or they like simplicity) and some prefer more powerful edition Zentimo. So you can decide right now what to do: to purchase USB Safely Remove with a significant discount (and then to upgrade to Zentimo with discount as well) or skip today's offer and wait for Zentimo final.

Jeff Carbello I looked on the feature list but could not determine this.

Do any of these tools either this one or the newer Zentimo allow to suppress auto-start on removable media from specific drives?  So maybe for a portable DVD its okay but not for a usb flash drive.  This strategy would be used to prevent auto-run viruses/trojans that sometimes infect flash media.  My wife picked one up from a Walmart photo machine on our camera flash card.  Her anti-virus did not pick it up, but mine did.  But this could be avoided all together by preventing the auto-run, something which a tool like this would be a good fit for.

BENNET User Very nice application for removing USB devices safely.

More good things are,
1. The program is being actively developed, and the author (Igor) is very active in responding & fixing the bugs. I have seen the bugs corrected on the same day of reporting.
2. The author really listens to what customers wants.
3. Very friendly user forum to discuss & report bugs.
and much more..

I am neither working for CrystalRich nor promoting it, but I am just an happy user of "USB safely Remove" and "Zentimo" (another product from this vendor). I own a lifetime license key of both wonderful softwares.

P.S. Zentimo is again now being offered with "lifetime licensing" system, which was withdrawn earlier last year. Thanks Igor for listening to us for bringing back "zentimo" with lifetime licensing model.

Anyone who doesn't try any of these CrystalRich's product, please give it a try. I am sure you will love it at the very first moment.

S B USB Safely Remove seems to have the important core functionality of it bigger Crystal Rich-family brother, Zentimo.

I can't directly speak to USB SR, but Crystal Rich is helpful and professional, and Zentimo is a *great* and extremely useful product (I use its core USB SR functions daily) and it continues to improve.

This BDJ offer is for the just-released version 5 of USB SR with some not-too-obvious, but substantial improvements in UI and unloading.

If you mount and dismount USB devices--or transfer data with USB drives, USB SR should be at least a major help and convenience.

Rick Truell Jesus: Technically, Zentimo is better because it has more features. I've had USR for a while now and it's one of the first things that gets installed when I redo a computer. For me, most of Zentimo's additional features are of little interest. Although, the ability to easily get rid of the damned Windows autorun/autoplay may alone be worth the $30 upgrade price :-)

Michael R.

I'm using USBSafelyRemove (currently v5.1.3.1186) on my win7/x64 system since some time and am quite happy with it.


Especially I appreciate the feature to define some drive-letters for not being used for devices like an usb-stick, so I don't have problems with a currently not used truecrypt-partition, which is supposed to receive a certain drive-letter, in that, that this letter is not assigned to a plugged-in usb-stick.

Also I appreciate the autorun-feature, which allows me to start a (self-written) predefined program, which I created this way, that it looks for a certain file on my new device, and evaluates this to decide what to do next...

But unfortunately these two features quite often do not work correctly together:
As it seems the autorun is called before a drive-letter-reassignment took place, i.e. it behaves (often) like this:
1) the OS decides a new plugged in usb-device gets drive letter f:
2) USBSafelyRemove calls my autorun-programand, which gets drive-letter f: from USBSafelyRemove as a parameter drive.
3) USBSafelyRemove looks on the drive-letter black-list and reassigns f: to g:
So unfortunately my autorun-program expects the new device on f:, but it isn't there anymore.
As it seems this problem does not occur any more, if the usb-stick is removed and entered right again. Perhaps the system or USBSafelyRemove remembers the usb-stick and the last drive-letter it got...
But doing this some time later, perhaps after having used the usb-port with another stick, the same problem reoccurs.
So I suppose the bug-fixing might be quite easy in just calling the autorun-program after the reassignment took place...

Some minor bugs also take place:
- It sometimes occurs that a drive is assigned to a drive-letter, which is already used via a SUBST-command.
- In the f:/g:-example above, it occurs that the OS creates TWO dialog-windows about what to do with the new device, e.g. open directory... One for (the no more existing) drive f: and one for g:. Of course it should do this only for g:
Is there a way to avoid these dialogs at all?
Or even better would be, if it could be switched off and the autorun-program could call this dialog itself. Is there a way for a program to do this?

Thanks a lot...

Yes, there is an incorrect behavior of the program in this case. We will fix it in the closest versions.

This shouldn't occur normally, but we will check this and fix if it really happens.

We will try to see if we can do something with it.

This is a standard requirement of all payment processing companies (we use FastSpring as our payment registrar).

I'd like to clarify here some things. USB Safely Remove in no way is a poor sister of Zentimo. Zentimo includes more features than USB Safely Remove but in terms of quality of safe removal they are identical. As was mentioned by Pim Joosten the differences are here: http://zentimo.com/zentimovsusbsr.htm

>> Can I buy a license today and hold it until next year, and then get another year's worth that way?
Unfortunately no, at the moment if you purchase additional one year license the new license will start from today, not from the end of the previous license. And we do not prolong for discounted price, however we have promotions from time to time. So you should either wait until your current license ends and new version will come or you can purchase the license with lifetime upgrades from today's promo.

>> Does USB Safely Remove have the capability to right click "safely remove" when open in xplorer2?
Just checked it and I can confirm USB Safely Remove can safely remove USB drives even when they are open in Xplorer2. In this case the program displays you the message that the drive is locked by Xplorer2 and using the "Forced Stop" button you can release and stop the drive.

Igor Tkachenko @Tortuga,
Thanks for your appreciation! Normally the system drive shouldn't be listed on any operating system. It's done intentionally in order to avoid dangerous operations with the system drive. Check that you have the latest version of the program installed on your XP machine. If it's the latest one and the system partitions are still listed feel free to send us the report from the program. In order to send the report you should proceed to "Main menu - Help - Report a bug", and in the opened dialog enter your e-mail and a short description of the problem. This helps us to investigate the problem more detailed.

Trucker $7.90 for 1 year and $17.90 for 2 years ? I pass, coz lifetime for $32.90 seems to be less than 4 years !
Another ting is... this do the same as windows do, so why buy it in the first place ? And when windows say that it can´t eject a USB device then there is a reason ! One reason could be another program that runs from that USB device because it keep the PC safe for some reason or another !

Tortuga @Igor, Thank you for your reply
Well, this is funny ..., but not really! Here I was thinking the bug was the missing HDD on W7, but you tell me the problem is that it's showing on my XP :0
Yes, I'm using the newest version.
But the thing is, I do need to change the letter/name of the partition next to 'C' on W7, which I can NOT access. That HDD/OS «was» part of a Multi Boot, but I had to change things around. So you see, I need to access it to change letter/name to reflect it's position on a new setup. It's a conundrum !
Hope you can help
Peace

Igor Tkachenko @Trucker: = Another ting is... this do the same as windows do, so why buy it in the first place ? One of the favorite features of the program is that unlike Windows it shows what programs prevent a device from being removed and allows to safely disconnect them. But there are lots of other features (that native safe removal don't have) aimed to make your work with devices easier and more productive, read more here: http://safelyremove.com/f...esList.htm @Tortuga, =But the thing is, I do need to change the letter/name of the partition next to 'C' on W7, which I can NOT access We will consider changing this behavior in the following versions. Now you can change the drive letters manually from Windows Disk Management tool.

Trucker @Igor - I get your point, but more programs on top of existing/build-in programs will often course new problems that I don't need. When I work with my PC then do I always know what is plugged in and I have set it up to always be able to get removed at any time... because I work after this rule: "The PC and the plug-in devices should always be prepared for thunderstorm or sudden power fail"
When that rule isn´t broken then is it very difficult for any given program to help me do things better or safer.
The build-in programs is there for people who needs them as just like your program do ! I have had PC´s since DOS v3.0 and I have always been very careful not to install more programs than I needed, due to space on the FDD/HDD and later SSD.
Don´t overlook the fact that many people today know more about what is going down on their PC than ever before !

Tortuga @Igor Thank you for your answer :)
Yes, I know Windows will let me do that, the point of having Zentimo is so I don't have to go through hoops in Windows, to do a simple operation.
Thank you for considering adding this option.

@Trucker: You shld still consider either USR or Zentimo, bc Windows does NOT tell you WHY the external/peripheral can not be removed. When you don't know the 'why', only a reboot can free the handles Windows put on files of that particular external.
Plus, there is letter management, which Windows does not give you, eg if a bkup external needs to be letter 'H' bc that is where scheduled bkup data is set to be, ea time you plug that HDD it will be the same letter, instead of being any random letter Windows assigns, so either the bkup wont start or goes to another HDD that got the 'H' letter haphazardly. Zentimo has more options than USR, depends what your needs are. I've bought both, both are very good, prefer Zentimo as I hv a ton of peripherals. First thing I install. Lifetime license is well worth it!
I understand you don't like to install unnecessary progs. For me, this one is a must. Just my opinion.

You said: "I have set it up to always be able to get removed at any time", which is great, I just don't understand how you can do this. Can you elaborate? I hv several HDDs & keys plugged at the same time, ea one has several partitions. I don't see how I could always be prepared, in advance, to unplug any or all. How can one prevent Windows writing onto any/all those partitions at any given time? I wd very much like to know how to do this. Thanks

Trucker @Tortuga - I have tried Zentimo, but it didn´t work with the OS very well, so I uninstalled it. Yes, I did buy it at that time and it was waste of money.

I don't need to know why Windows don't let me remove a device, coz that have never happen after I turn off safe mode in the build-in version and I removed Zentimo and other programs like it.

Ctrl+Alt+delete can help in the most situations and by using Task manager at the same time then do I fast find out where the problem is... as I know which processes to leave alone and which I can turn off.

Letter management isn´t an issue for me as I have made it easy for the OS and don't need a scheduled backup. The system is prepared as any system can be... it work like this on my laptop (and all desktop as well):

The 1st SSD holds OS and other high demanding programs like audio/video-editors and games like Race7 and Flight Simulator...

The 2nd SSD holds less demanding programs like MS Office and Serif WebPlus...

The HDD holds the work that I save directly from any program... so all needed backup is done "on the fly"...

From time to time I do move all those saved files to an extern common HDD, but it´s done manual to bigger safety and longer life for that extern HHD, coz after each manual transfer the HDD is turned off ! So a virus discovered on one or more of PCs will never find its way to that extern HDD. That way I only loose those files that haven´t been saved after last manual backup. Scheduled backup don't have that safety option !

Trucker You´re welcome...
I have always tried to keep my PC safety simple but strong as possible and over the years the safety haven't been stronger than it is today. The biggest risk will always be what you don´t do to secure the system. There is more options on your router than most people know about ! That should be 1st on the safety list... much can be done, few think that far and that do harm some people from time to time...

Igor Tkachenko Hi Susan,
Perhaps these are non storage devices, don't it? If it does, they are not displayed by default, but you can see them if you click "XX devices are hidden" link: http://screencast.com/t/u6w3uYnF .

If it's not your case and there are no devices even in "Hidden" list please feel free to send us the report from the program. In order to send the report you should proceed to "Main menu -> Help -> Report a bug", and in the opened dialog enter your e-mail and a short description of the problem. This helps us to investigate the problem more detailed.

Alejandro Gonzalez Hi Susan:
Sometimes the USB devices aren`t reconoiced as HD with a HD letter, so on you need open Disks Administrator and assign a letter.

Susan Epstein I have a USB drive connected as Drive F. The Utility is still showing me "There are no connected devices". This is an "Unregistered Evaluation Version".

I also changed the option to not "hide drive letters when no media inserted" - so I should have several drives displayed...but don't have anything.

Since I can't get this working, I'm ready to uninstall - unless there is some obvious quick fix.

thanks...Susan

Igor Tkachenko @Alejandro: Even if USB drive don't have a letter it's still will be displayed in the program. Furthermore it's not needed to open Disk Management, it's possible to assign a letter from the program (right click to the device -> choose device properties -> switch to Drive Properties tab).

@Susan Goodhart:
Could you send us the report from the program, please? It's very easy, just right click to the program icon, choose Help -> Report a bug", and in the opened dialog enter your e-mail and a short description of the problem. This helps us to investigate the problem more detailed.

Susan Epstein Sorry, I already uninstalled. I actually had to reboot the computer before it would allow me to uninstall. I couldn't end the program from Task Manager, and uninstall wouldn't work until it was ended.
Sorry it didn't work out...the program looked like it would have been useful.

Dunking I'm a Zentimo user and just checked the options for upgrading. It seems that an upgrade for me to lifetime license is $59.90, but if I had the inferior USB Safely Remove the cost to switch to Zentimo AND get lifetime upgrades would be only $29.95!

Great app(s) but I'm left feeling loyalty doesn't score highly when it comes to existing customer benefits. I would save money by discarding my existing license, buy this offer and then up/crossgrade to Zentimo.

Dunking Thanks @Igor - I made a mistake switching back and forth on that page. You are correct that it is $39.90, but it is still cheaper to get there via USB Safely Remove rather than upgrade a Zentimo license.

Igor Tkachenko @Dunking It might be cheaper and it would be OK, because it's a time limited offer and it ends in 24 hours, while the official upgrade prices remain the same. But in your case it wouldn't be cheaper, $11.94+$29.90=$41.84, which is slightly more than $39.90. Anyway feel free to write me at support@crystalrich.com I suppose we will find a personal discount for you.

Experience Been using USB Safely Remove since 2010 I believe and lifetime option genuinely lifetime, it has a plethora of features and customizations compared to windows own built in and looks and functions way better.

If you're like me having expensive NVMe Disks connected to PC or Laptop?, which you may even have setup in sync or as backup?, then this program is certainly for you, as storage volumes increases and also their price tags, it's kinda more important nowadays than it was in 2010.

Happy sales now and many thank's for a nice program that served me well for all these years.

Scott Davis I've been using this for over 10 years.
I got the lifetime version in 2010.
I had gotten a LONG free trial, then a 2 year rental, and then the lifetime.
I shoulda got the big one first! It is used on all my PCs.

It has never let me down and has saved me from screwing up lots of times.
Works on thumb drives and opticals too.
There may be other similar tools. Heck the MS-DOS has a shell command but I get lost on those.
This one KNOWS I'm just am a stupid user and keeps it mellow.
Thumbs UP from me!
