I have an icon which appears alongside the programmes which are running and
states "Safely remove hardware" and when I click on it I get the following
USB Smart Media Adapter, Manufacturer Microtech International.
I don't recognise this item so can I remove it ?

Could this be your USB printer with a (camera) Memory card reader?
Turn off the printer, does it go away?
Anything else plugged into a USB port?
 
I suggest that you leave it alone and don't use it. Using it will
disable all of your USB ports.
 
I have a card reader for my camera. I assume that will be it.
Why it is showing this is a mystery.I will have to just ignore it
