MrPete Posted April 13 Report Share Posted April 13 On my Win10 computer running Retrospect (18.5 -- upgrade coming as soon as paperwork is received)... The computer has four specific partitions backed up (C:, D:, P:, Y:) I plugged in an external USB drive, with multiple partitions Windows will not let me eject it because it is busy I traced the issue (System Event Viewer, filter for event type 225!) to Restrospect.exe refusing to let go In Retrospect Volumes Database, every partition on the USB shows up. There are two painful issues: "Forget" is grayed out. I cannot tell Retrospect to ignore specific USB partitions I don't see a way to generally ignore USB devices. This is HUGE since Retrospect grabs any USB device and won't let go! I do NOT need all USB sticks backed up. The only workaround I see at the moment is to stop Retrospect when I need to eject a USB device. That's pretty obscure (it was NOT obvious that the culprit was Retrospect!) Does anyone have a better solution? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lennart_T Posted April 14 Report Share Posted April 14 Does the external USB drive have anything to do with Retrospect? (Such as being part of a disk backup set.) Otherwise I have no idea. Sorry. I never experienced this problem myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
