Consider the following scenario:
- You attach a removable cartridge disk drive to a computer that is running Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008.
- In Device Manager, you enable the Optimize for performance setting on the Policies tab of the device properties.
- In Windows Explorer, you select the drive icon, and then you click Eject to eject the cartridge.
In this scenario, the removable cartridge is not ejected, and you receive the following error message:
An error occurred while ejecting 'Removable Disk (X:)'
However, when you click
Eject again, the removable cartridge is ejected successfully. This problem occasionally occurs on certain removable cartridge disk drives.
