Safely eject? (Windows)
My Boox Leaf appears as a portable device under Devices and Drives when I plug it in. Everything works fine as far as file transfer goes but there is no eject button on the context menu for it. It doesn't appear under "Safely remove Hardware and eject media" on the taskbar either. How do you safely eject the Boox Leaf on Windows?

You don't need to. Boox devices use MTP not USB mass storage. With MTP the PC asks the device nicely to copy the file and the device itself does so, and so if disconnected it just stops doing that. With USB mass storage the PC directly writes the file so if you disconnect while it's doing that it can corrupt things, hence the the need to safely eject.

Thank you! I didn't know that.
