So you might have better luck in Arch's forum.

That's been fixed.

So now why is there an icon for a floppy disk when I don't even have a floppy drive attached to my computer?

The floppy thing maybe is something in /etc/fstab?

No, my fstab is very basic:

cat /etc/fstab

# /etc/fstab: static file system information

# <file system>        <dir>         <type>    <options>          <dump> <pass>

That looks very likely. Thanks for the link.

1) Insert USB stick
2) Settings | Desktop | Icons - Default Icons - Removable devices (ON)
This is the result
3) Settings | Desktop | Icons - Default Icons - Removable devices (OFF)
One USB icon and one floppy Icon are still there.
4) Right click USB icon - eject media. Physically remove USB stick.
5) Settings | Desktop | Icons - Default Icons - Removable devices (ON)
Now 2 floppies and the USB stick. I can open the USB stick from the icon on the desktop
6) Settings | Desktop | Icons - Default Icons - Removable devices (OFF)
Still a floppy and the USB stick

Even after re-starting the window manager, they're still there.

Questions:
Why is there an icon for a floppy disk as removable media? I don't even have a floppy drive attached to my computer.
Why is my USB drive shown twice and why is the floppy shown twice?
Why won't they disappear when my Desktop setting say don't show removable media?
