Can not stop external hard disk

1. When the USB device would not stop DUE TO a “program still accessing it.” Instead of shutting down explorer.exe in the Task Manager area, just open Windows Explorer (usually at C:\Windows\explorer.exe) and immediately close it without clicking on any files. Then try stopping the USB device. This worked for me for a Western Digital 500 GB hard drive.
