re: Missing Safely Remove Hardware Icon Friday, July 25, 2008 at 12:39 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Spexx (2229 messages posted) I have always understood that the icon only appears when a USB (or other removeable) storage device is plugged in. I have a Bluetooth device and a Wireless networking device both plugged in to USB ports and the icon does not appear. As soon as I plug a USB flash drive in, the icon appears. If I remove it safely (using the icon) then the icon goes away. In fact if I just rip the flash drive out, the icon goes away. This is normal, expected behaviour. Cheers. Spexx.
