I got the USB Safely Remove when it was on giveaway earlier. I got this one just now. The author seems to be open to feature requests. It looks like a good utility to keep watching. You never know when they'll be another giveaway for an improved version.
I haven't tried the Forced Stop on this one yet but on USB Safely Remove it didn't seem to do anything. You click the Forced Stop and it just pops up the same dialog telling you what is using the drive. Granted I put a network share on a folder which is likely the issue. But even when I disconnect from the other machine sometimes it won't stop so I either have to log off, or just kill the power.
I use sync.exe to make sure the drive buffers are flushed in any case before stopping any drives.
