Unmount volumes after login #5

Open sandifop opened 3 years ago

sandifop commented 3 years ago

I have 13 volumes on my system, different logons use different volumes. Would it be possible to have Ejectify unmount volumes upon login to limit the volumes available without specifically taking a "mount" action unwanted volumes? Or to go further on this idea, create custom volume sets for each user?

In my use case:

Background: I misread the feature set and thought I could select which volumes would mount at login. Looking at the level of interaction with MacOS it seems this might not be desirable; however, something almost as good would be the ability to unmount specific volume when logging in.

Thanks

Thanks for reaching out!

Technically it should be possible (although I think they all will be mounted initially but as soon as the app has started it can unmount the unneeded volumes). However, I'm questioning the number of users requiring something similar 🤔.

I can’t answer that, and it is a valid concern for a developer. As for myself, it would be use every day and reboot.
