Can't eject hard drive?

Hello 🙂
Unfortunately, I can't eject my external hard drive. I keep getting an error message saying the hard drive is still in use and that all programs should be closed. The programs and everything else are closed, but it still doesn't work. I've also tried restarting, but that didn't help.

I also know about USB and hard drives in older Windows versions.

In reality, even writing is done, but somehow it is stuck in any program. (There has been some routine not getting the end of the process.)

In this case, only shutdown helps to avoid data loss.

You don’t know if nothing is written.

When you shut down, everything will be finished. Also the letter. Only when everything is finished, the computer is switched off.

Then you can safely remove the disk.

I guess some writing on your hard drive is still running.

Which one, I can’t tell you on a flat-rate basis. That can be all with you.
