Is there a cmd to either stop or dismount a USB flash drive via command line
as opposed to using the GUI ?
TIA.

Try deveject.exe (ftp://ftp.heise.de/pub/ct/listings/0316-208.zip).

From Start-Run

RUNDLL32.EXE shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL hotplug.dll

This brings up the "Unplug safely" dialog box

No, I don't know of any such switches.
That could be difficult with more than one USB device to choose from.
