Removable devices

Is it possible to manage removable devices (USB Flash memories) in
WinXP, Vista, .. with C++?
Is there a library or something else?

To my knowledge most device drivers in Windows are written in C++,
however such programming is off-topic in this group since it is
platform-dependent. You should try one of the microsoft.public.* groups
if you have more questions on the subject.

Actually, speaking from experience, they're written in C. However, it's
still OT here.
