Unfortunately this is still an issue in 2022 with v2.5.7.3565. I've been dealing with not being able to safely remove most usb flash drives for more than the past year and finally got annoyed enough to look into the issue. As soon as I stop the service ejecting works great. "Do not automatically scan removable media" is selected, but I also have automatic scanning disabled, so it shouldn't be doing ANYTHING for ANY disk and yet this issue persists. I'm going to have to leave the service disabled and only use it manually. This kind of defeats the purpose though and doesn't offer much beyond what you can get with various free SMART monitoring apps. In fact, if I have to manually enable it then I don't even get the basic SMART monitoring (only snapshots when manually run). It would certainly be nice if the problem with removable media could actually be fixed once and for all so the software could be used for its intended purpose.
