Hello! I have huge problem. Namely, my icon in tray Safely remove hardware is disappeared. Now I have a problem when I attach USB flash memory. When I want to unplug it, I need to turn my computer off. I do not know how to solve this problem and if you know how, please, teach me. Thanks you in advance!

Hello! You can safely remove hardware if you open My Computer. Then right click on letter of removal hardware, then choose stop driver. After it stop, you can remove it from your USB port without any afraid that you will harm it. Also, you can try to back your icon in tray: right click on taskbar, select customize notifications and, after that, select always show.
