Request to Disconnect

1.If a USB device is being used by another

computer on your network, a RED icon will be displayed in front of the device name. You will not have the option to disconnect the device, however, you may send a courtesy message to request that the other user disconnect/release the device.

2.To send the courtesy disconnect message, right click on the USB device and select “Request Disconnect”, as shown below. A message will then be sent to the user requesting that they disconnect from the USB device.

NOTE: If the occupying user denies this request, then you will not be able to send any further requests to the same user for

5 minutes. This is to prevent any user from flooding the occupying user with multiple requests within a short period of time.
