I am currently having the same problem as Dieter: I can not remove a
USB harddisk becasue TSVNCache keeps the handles open.
When viewing what happens with Filemon (from Sysinternals), I see that
TSVNCache closes all the handles when I try to "eject" the drive using
the tray icon. But just 200 ms later it reopens the handles. Is there
some race condition going on, like TSVNCache detecting the closing
handles as a change on the drive and scans it again?
BTW, using TSVN 1.4.3
