Hi serak,

i don't think we have an option for that, but i assume your windows option is still present in systray?
Might be a bit unhandy if you'd like to keep MP open though...

yes, you can with 1.6 ,with the rework of Deda
you can eject the drive with "F9" context menu

Yes, it is not very comfortable to stop MePo and go back to windows desktop to safely remove device. Especially if I use remote controller only. I'm surprised, nobody miss this feature.

I am in the middle of other tests but it would be interesting to see logs from just removing the device...
Does MP Client stay alive?
If it is a Server/Client, does it stay alive?
Win 7 (unlike previous versions) will not lose files.. I do it all the time without Un-mounting first.

I have just installed 1.6. Where can I find it? I notice, I use remote controler only. No F1-F12 keys.

i don't use MCE remote, but maybe the info button can open " context menu" available also with " F9", select your drive in plugins, and select " eject"
