Device Notify window (RegisterDevice Notification)

Hi,
I'm writing a C# application, this application will display a message when
USB device connected/disconnected(re moved) , How can I do that ?
I made some research and find something called "RegisterDevice Notification"
, But don't find how to use it in my C# since I should send to this API
"IntPtr hRecipient", How can I do that ?

[DllImport("user 32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
static extern IntPtr RegisterDeviceN otification(Int Ptr hRecipient,IntP tr
NotificationFil ter, uint Flags);

I saw some example in C++ which do the following :
RegisterDeviceN otification(thi s->GetSafeHwnd( ), &NotificationFi lter,
DEVICE_NOTIFY_W INDOW_HANDLE);

How to do the same in C# ?????????????

Hi Does anybody have any code examples of using C# to draw to a window using device contexts, more specifically, erasing the entire window by painting a background color in the OnPaint / OnDraw event? What about using a buffer device context to draw to, then BitBlt ing that to the screen? Thanks Ben

I am writing a C# app that needs to periodically poll for cdroms and usb storage device insertions. I've looked at the WMI functions but haven't found anything all that useful. The closest is Win32_DiskDrive, but it doesn't seem to return any information on cdrom devices. I suspect there might be a Win32 API call, but I haven't found any info yet using Google. Is there a way to achieve this in C#?

Hi all, I hava java application that wants to receive windows events when a device like an USB or Firewire is plugged in. I know how to do this natively in C++ where I can register a window to receive device change events using WM_DEVICECHANGE. I'm assuming I'd have to use JNI to somehow get the events up to my java app from the native code, but I'm not sure where to start exactly. I've posted this question to the Java froum as well but any...

Hello. I'm trying to create a program in Visual Basic 6 that detects when a user is attempting to remove a USB drive, by using the "Safely Remove Hardware" icon on the taskbar. There is supposed to be a message (DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE) that the Windows Operating System broadcasts to applications that are "listening" for it. I'm trying to utilise this message to prevent the removal of the device. It has been stated on the MSDN site, that you...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
