Sick of constantly experiencing the Window’s “The device ‘Generic volume’ cannot be stopped because a program is still accessing it.” message, I decided to give the program USB Safely Remove a test.
The first time trying to stop my USB hard-disk-drive I get the following “Could not find any processes locking USB device!”, great, the one program that advertises as “an enhanced and hassle-free replacement for Windows safe removal tool” doesn’t even work.
Back to directly unplugging the drive.

It turned out to better than I expected, some of the reasons i purchased this was;
; up button - increase volume
LWin::Send {vkAFsc130}
; down button - decrease volume
SC030::Send {vkAEsc12E}
; left button - pause winamp (must have global hotkeys on)
Shift & F5::Send ^!{Home}
; right button - mute
;Esc::Send {vkADsc120}
; left button
PgUp:: msgbox, Page Up
; right button
PgDn:: msgbox, Page Down
; the following uses a two key sequence, right button (esc) and then page up, to cause the movie to play
Esc::
Input,OutputVar,L1 T2,{PgUp}
if ErrorLevel = EndKey:PgUp
