Never forget your USB stick - Lifehacker… Well, I hate it when I leave my USB at work… here’s the article….
Never forget your USB stick
READ MORE: Flash Drive, Reminders, Thumb drive, USB drive The 4sysops blog has posted a tutorial for running a Visual Basic script that will make sure you never leave the office with your USB stick plugged into your work computer again. Did you ever forget your USB stick at work, and then realized at home that you badly needed some files on it?…. pcwUnstick is a Visual Basic script from PC WELT, a German computer magazine. The script opens a pop up window whenever you shut down your PC if a USB-stick is still plugged-in. It works with Firewire hard disks too. The tutorial steps you through getting the script added to your shutdown scripts using gpedit. I gave it a try and it did work, though it’s weird to get an alert message in German telling you to remember your USB stick. This seems like it could be a very useful tool for the always-needs-reminded set. |
