I used the commands:

defaults write com.apple.finder ProhibitEject true and
sudo defaults write com.apple.finder ProhibitEject true (as stated on this page - Remove eject button from finder)

The command prevented the 'eject' button from working, however i want to undo this command...

Can someone rewrite the command to undo this, so that my eject button can work again?

Reset to default

To reverse any Boolean command, just type the inverse property, so...

true becomes false, one becomes zero

defaults write com.apple.finder ProhibitEject false

sudo defaults write com.apple.finder ProhibitEject false

  • Thanks for that... Is there any way to stop eject from working on one drive. I have a SD card that i use for storage and i keep accidentally pressing eject on it... So is there any method to prevent the eject from working on that drive?

    I didn't know Eject would affect anything other than the DVD tray. it doesn't here. SD cards, RAM disks, external drives all must be right-click/ejected, or Cmd/E
