Tried with my 6D. No problem after ejecting in Ubuntu. Couldn’t eject at all in Windows in a VirtualBox, so I got the same problem as you there.

I will later this week check this out windows - Remove USB device from command line - Super User

You could try this… https://zadig.akeo.ie/

Taken from the build instructions for WIndows…

here

github.com

darktable-org/darktable/blob/master/packaging/windows/BUILD.md

To build darktable for Windows operating system you have two basic option:  
A) Native compile using MSYS  
B) Cross compile on Linux

## A) Native compile using MSYS2:  
How to make a darktable windows installer (64 bit only):

* Install MSYS2 (instructions and prerequisites can be found on official website: https://msys2.github.io/).

* Update the base MSYS2 system until no further updates are available using: `$ pacman -Syu`

* From MSYS2 terminal, install x64 developer tools and x86_64 toolchain and git from the MSYS2 prompt:
    ```
    $ pacman -S base-devel
    $ pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-{toolchain,cmake,nsis}
    $ pacman -S git
    ```
* Install required libraries and dependencies:
    ```
    $ pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-{exiv2,lcms2,lensfun,dbus-glib,openexr,sqlite3,libxslt,libsoup,libavif,libwebp,libsecret,lua,graphicsmagick,openjpeg2,gtk3,pugixml,libexif,osm-gps-map,libgphoto2,flickcurl,drmingw,gettext,python3,iso-codes,python3-jsonschema,python3-setuptools}

Thank you really much, but I don’t understand a word of it. But I am glad to know som IT specialists who probably can help me to translate that to an analphabatic. I speak englisch, german, dutch, norwegian and a litle bit french. But I have to accept that it isn’t enough. But i realy appreciate all the help I get from people around the world. Its magic!

Isn’t it this simple?
After clicking ‘add to library’ or ‘copy & import’:

You have to click the little ‘+’ sign next to ‘places’ to add a drive letter / folder. Select the drive-letter and/or folder from your camera when it is connected. After adding this ‘as a place’, you can select it and navigate the folder structure in the section under it.

If your camera doesn’t show up, you have a weird one. Maybe it is in ‘MTP’ mode or something? That requires special software to work with it to access the pictures on it, almost 99% of camera’s and users have it set to ‘mass storage’ mode (and it will be by default I guess) so that the camera shows up as a drive when it is connected through USB to a computer.

I have the same phenomenon with a Nikon Z50.

It doesn’t offer an option for switching USB mode.

I just provided where the link comes from for context…you don’t need to build it…just use the first link to the usb driver to give that a try…

priort · October 13, 2021, 1:53am

In your case do you have the Nikon software set to auto upload when the camera connects…not sure but I was wondering if the OP had something like that going on with the Canon software…

Nothing like that. I manually copy in Windows Explorer.

Couldn’t find 6D to eject…

To copy in Windows Explorer like apostel338 wrote seems to be the easiest workaround.

apostel338 · October 13, 2021, 4:38pm

Connections via MTP can’t be ejected.
