Hi there, I have a 1 TB Seagate Expansion Portable hard drive which is almost 4 months old. A few days ago, when I tried to use the safely remove feature I got the error message

"Problem Ejecting USB Attached SCSI (UAS) Mass Storage Device"

"This device is currently in use. Close any programs or windows that might be using the device, and then try again"

I pressed OK and closed all open windows and applications and still got the same error message.

Then I searched around the internet for a solution, but to vain. Then I opened up the Device Manager and went to the found my hdd under disk drives and on the Policies tab, saw that my hdd was defaulted to quick removal, which wasn't the case all this while as I always used the safe removal feature. So I clicked on the second option to write cache and use the safe removal thing. To my surprise, it actually worked.

Alas, the problem didn't go away and the next time the same thing happened. I got the error message.

I dug around Device Manager and in the events of my HDD, a event says something about "device not migrated".

I am thinking it could be the problem, but I have no idea what to do. I also have the "Feature update to windows 10 version 1909" pending and am also thinking an update could help, but I don't know if the 1909 update is safe.

Someone please help.
