How to flush a storage volume's the file cache, lock and dismount it and eject the media - CodeProject

Introduction to Article

Ejecting a media is well known for CD/DVD drives. Here we get a physical ejection. But also ZIP/JAZ drives and card readers (drives with a removable media) support ejection and since they are not read only it is required to dismount their file system before ejection to prevent loss of data.

Determine Information about System, User, Processes, Hardware... - CodeProject

The old .NET Framework logoImage via WikipediaIntroduction:
This article is compilation of all "How To Determine" list. For example "How to find the computer name", "how to find number of fonts installed on system". As you know the list is endless, and this would be regularly updated, updated on reader's demands and as new technology evolve.
Every effort it taken to use both C++ and C#. C++ code will be on top of native Windows API, and optionally using MFC. C# code will be on top of .NET framework, and if not available using DllImports of native Windows API. For all "how-to-retrieve" operation, there would be C++. For C++, wherever applicable, Unicode strings and functions are used.
