We’ve been getting quite a few people coming to blandname recently looking for creative ways to eject CDs from there computers running multiple environments. One of the most popular searches are from people looking to eject or control their CDROM drives using software running on Microsoft Windows XP. Not one to refuse lending a hand, I searched around and came up with a great solution! The product is called “CD Eject Tool“, and not only does it allow you to eject CDs from within Windows, but it has some other nifty features as well. Let’s have a gander at the marketing material so skilfully written.

“CD Eject Tool is a utility that manages your CD Drive doors. It allows you eject and close the CD Drive door by using a hotkey, desktop shortcut, or via an icon in your system tray. It will automatically close the door within a couple of seconds if you have chosen the action Get CD.”

“The program creates a separate icon in your system tray for each CD Drive, so you can control (eject, close,.. etc.) any drive door by clicking on the appropriate icon.”

Eject/Close your CD Drives:

  • via tray icons
  • via desktop icons
  • by using hotkey

Control your CD Drives:

  • lock/unlock CD Drive door
  • suppress/disable autorun
  • run autorun at any time

Unfortunately the software is not freeware, but there is a 30 day trial on their site. I’m still looking for an open source application that does the same thing, but have had no luck so far.
