Make sure there are no system files on the flash drive. If there are windows system files or backups that are being used, shutdown the computer to remove the drive. If you are using the flash drive as a backup or for running programs, you have to shutdown to remove it.
You do not use Devices and Printers to remove flash drives. Open Explorer instead.
