In reply to Andy Z.. I still don't see USB device on my left hand side of the screen. So I just pull it out anyway.

Thank you! The instruction you posted, with the graphic of the “eject” button for those of us who don’t know the image lingo really helped. Problem solved!

The triangle icon is not showing up. So how do I eject a flash drive if the icon does not appear?

In reply to BJ.

Hey BJ,

The Eject button looks like a small upwards-pointing arrow and it’s to the right of your USB device’s name in the Files app.

So the first you’d do is launch the Files app (you can click on the Launcher icon or press the “Finder” key on your keyboard).

Then, look for your connected USB device on the left-hand menu.

Once you find it, look to the immediate right of it and you should see a small triangular arrow- this is the Eject button.

I believe you can also just right-click on the device’s name and select “Eject” from the options menu that pops up.

Let me know if you can’t find it.

Thanks.
