I need to know how to lock Format Flash Drive, Copy File, Delete File when i choose the case 6 or the Lock Flash Drive.I need to know also how to unlock it when i choose the case 7 or the Unlock Flash Drive. I need to know also how to save the variable. Like when i choose the copy file and i inserted 300 and the remaining free space is 724 and the used space is 300 and i exit the program when i opened it again i will see the 724 free space and 300 used space. Edit my program if you like. Thanks

If you use Windows and you actually want to LOCK the drive, then look up the function DeviceIoControl. That should give you a place to start

i need it in c++ codes.. but thanks for the suggestion..
