View 1 RepliesI'm writing a small application to detect the insertion of USB memory sticks and prompt the user to accept the device or reject it. Rejecting it would prevent its being loaded by Windows. I have the code that detects insertion & removal working fine but have no idea how to cancel the insertion.I was thinking that I could intercept the DEVICEARRIVAL message and kill it off before its actioned by Windows but I am lost with this.code to show the way.Heres the main part of the code I have so far-
Protected Overrides Sub WndProc(ByRef m As System.Windows.Forms.Message)
'This kills off any 'autoplay' capability in the stick

I am making a program that will allow a user to use any USB flash drive as a key, that when inserted, will automatically (upon validation, of course) enter login and password data into web forms, applications, and maybe even Windows Logon. But first things first: how to I detect when a USB key is inserted into the drive, for instance, perhaps just detect the last/latest inserted drive?
In addition, does anyone know if there is a way to directly identify a flash drive, maybe based on a serial number?, rather than validating it from a file on the device?

I don't know where the designer puts the info to load certain controls, nor do I know how to make the program skip loading a control if it doesn't work.
I am writing a Media Centre Addin in Vb.net and it was all going good until i got to the point where i want to find the "Currently Playing song FilePath or URl"I have spend a number of hours racking my brain to figure out a way of seeing what the "Currently Opened Files" are on a machine at any point of time.
My idea is to get all the currently opened files, and then filter the Extensions from these and find the media item that is currently playing, and get the filepath.Does anyone know how i can do this? and what methods or classes or Librarys i should be looking at or importing In..

I am in process to develop an application for Windows Mobile 6.5 using Visual Basic 2005 and .NET Compact Framework. My problem is that I want to know if an instance of my application is already running and, in that case, I want to jump directly to that instance, without starting another one. I tried several solutions found on the internet but I think there are solution for desktop applications not for mobile applications because I have a lot of errors.

View 3 RepliesI've been wondering about spotify and people without media control on their keyboard, so this nights project was about spotify and your own program (both is in system tray) and still be able to turn the volume up/down/skip song/prev song.
This works fine, except I would like to use this while I'm playing games in fullscreen, and so I tried this program while running a fullscreen game and ofcourse the program minimizes because it lay focus (I guess?) on spotify. If anyone of you have tried this,[URL] That's the link to the API.
