I trying to detect when the user wants to use the "Safe Remove Hardware"
dialog on a USB flash device. I monitoring a directory on the flash device
and until the directory monitor is closed, Safe Remove Hardware requests
will fail. I thought that RegisterDeviceNotification using the device's class
GUID would do the trick but I have yet to see any device change notifications
when trying to do a safe removal.

Anybody know if this approach is correct?

Thanks

register for notifications on the file handle that you open. you will then
be notified of queries to safely remove the hardware.
