You were right to keep reminding us, and sorry it took this long. This is fixed in 7.1: Listary now lets go of a USB drive when you eject it, including drives with indexed folders, and a drive pulled out without “Safely Remove” no longer keeps its old index. Download 7.1 here: [https://dl.listary.net/v7/Listary.exe](https://dl.listary.net/v7/Listary.exe) and install it over your current version (your settings are kept). Release notes: [Listary 7.1 Beta is here](https://discussion.listary.com/t/10325). If ejecting is still blocked, please reply here with your Windows version and the steps.
