Remarks
The system, as well as other applications, use these flags to optimize their use of the virtual drive. This property should be set by OR'ing together zero or more of the following flags:
STGC_FLOPPY_DISKETTE | 0x00000001 | The storage is a floppy disk device. |
STGC_READONLY_DEVICE | 0x00000002 | The storage is a read-only device. |
STGC_WRITE_ONCE_MEDIA | 0x00000008 | The storage device's media can only be written to once. |
STGC_REMOVABLE_MEDIA | 0x00000010 | The storage device's media is removable.
Users may remove the storage media from the virtual drive at any time. (Note that this flag does not indicate that the virtual drive itself is removable.) |
Note: This property cannot be changed when the drive is mounted, and cannot be changed within events.
