OK, tech guys! This is not really a Win-Eyes question, but hopefully someone here could give me a 'hand' on this:
When sending a bigger chunk of info - i.e copying several files - to a removal disk (in this case a USB flash drive), Windows has a 'delayed writing process'. This means, that when you send the files, they are bufferd, and, when Windows is not 'as busy', later on, the files are actually being written to the physical drive. I know, from the old DOS days, there was a 'flush' function, that would ensure the files were written immediately, without buffering, or even would empty whatever was in the buffer, onto the drive. Allright, DOS is gone, no more to think about. But is there a way - standard, or via some kind of third-party software - to accomplish such an emptyijng of the write-buffer in Windows?
