How to detect a USB Device Being plugged-in or unplugged?

[jack]

Hello,

I'm trying to make a program what can let me know when a USB device is added
or removed from a system. If anyone has any ideas or help that would be
great!

Thanks in advnace,

Jack

Jack, you are going to have to use P/Invoke and RegisterDeviceNotification.
Here's a link to some code by Wei Mao at MS.
