Here is a AutoHotkey GUI frontend for Window's Safely Remove Hardware that is easier to use and keyboard shortcut friendly. You can just use the up and down arrows and hit "Enter" to eject a removable drive with keyboard only operation. When the dialog no longer shows the drive, the "Esc" key closes the dialog. The GUI display is better than the Windows display which shows your drive labels in nested trees and requires mouse clicking. For more information visit AutoHotkey Forums SKAN's SafelyRemoveUMS function which it is based upon.
To use, download the file SafelyRemoveSKAN-GUI.ahk (9 KB) and run with AutoHotkey or use the pre-compiled AutoHotkey binary SafelyRemoveSKAN-GUI.exe (200 KB) if you don't have AutoHotkey. Or manually create the script by manually pasting the below text into a blank .AHK file and run with AutoHotkey:
