Re: USB device installation problem

If I change the ACLs in that key (Enum\USB) to avoid the creation of
other keys beneath it would it block the usage of USB devices in that
computer?

Windows records each device plugged into the USB interface in the

you will see a series of keys which names like Vid_049f&Pid_0056. The
key underneath will have a DESC entry which will describe the device's
friendly name.

As far as listing when and how many times they have been inserted, I
don't know anywhere that is listed.

Subject: USB device installation problem

Hello All,

Currently, USB usage becomes one of the most important part in Windows
systems. If I would like to check how many USB external storage has been
inserted to the computer before and when is they have been inserted and
removed, is there any way I can check that from registry? or is there
any
other location I can find that?

Please advise.

Thx.

Ricci
