Hello everybody,

I created an EWF Partition using RAM overlay. Now you all know, a ZERO
MB Partition will get created in the Disk.

Without deleting this Partition, we will not be able to run FBA again
and use this disk.

How to delete this partition using VC or VC.net Code.

Please help me regarding this.

With Regards,
Ranga.
 
Ranga,
I created an EWF Partition using RAM overlay. Now you all know, a ZERO
MB Partition will get created in the Disk.

32Kb partition (not 0)? It is EWF temporary partition.
You can, btw, use Slobodan's solution from www.xpefiles.com (ramewf) that
will allw you to setup RAM overlay without the temporary partition.
Without deleting this Partition, we will not be able to run FBA again and
use this disk.

You can delete the partition with tools such as diskprobe, diskpart, Paragon
Partition Manager, etc.
How to delete this partition using VC or VC.net Code.

Are you sure you need a "programmatic" way of doing that? First, you could
always exec the diskpart or any other related tool with CreateProcess API.
Then, there is always DDK where you can work with your HDD to perform
necessary operations.
