In 18362.449 when ejecting a USB device using Safely Remove Hardware it no longer shows the results of ejecting that USB Device. Is anyone else experiencing this and is there a fix? It wasn't happening in previous builds.

I still have the results for ejecting USB devices from Safely Remove Hardware on both of my machines currently on 18362.449. Oddly enough, if I don't see the results, I can wait a minute or two and try again, or even in Action Center I would put "Focust Assist" off and it will work (the results will show) and then after change back to "Priority Only". I don't have a fair explanation for the latter, but it just works sometimes.

Noticed that as well myself, it doesn't show the USB drive was safely ejected on 18363.449. Oh I did forget to check Focus assist, will look into that

With the new feature "Quick Removal" MS has confirmed that it is no longer necessary to use "Safely Remove Hardware", but out of an abundance of caution I keep on using it.

Microsoft confirms you really, really don’t need to ‘safely remove’ USB flash drives anymore - The Verge

Same here, keep on using it, as it's habit of mine of many many years of ejecting usb drives

It also confirms that the USB device is connected properly, so I think it's still worth having.
