Execute a command when you insert a USB device

Starting from version 1.10, USBDeview allows you to execute a command from exe/cmd/bat file in every time that inserta USB device to your system.In order to use this feature, go to 'Options->Advanced Options', select the 'Execute.' check-box, and typethe exe/cmd file that you want to run.You can also use the following special variables in this command string: %device_name%, %device_desc%, %drive%, %serial_number%, %vid%, %pid%, %vid_hex%, %pid_hex%, %device_type%, %service_name%, %device_class%, %device_mfg%
USBDeview will automatically replace these variables with the appropriate data of the device that you inserted.For example, if you want to pass to your exe file 2 parameters - the serial number of the device, and the drive letter:
c:temptest.exe '%serial_number%' '%drive%'

Known Limitations/Issues

• For all devices except 'Mass Storage' Devices:If you plug a device to one USB port, and then you plug the same device to another USB port, a newrecord of the same device will be created for each USB port that you plug. So if you see multiple lines for exactly the same device, it means that you plugged it to different USB ports. The USB ports that you plugged are specified in 'Hub/Port' column.
  However, for 'Mass Storage' device, only one record is created for each device, even if you plug it todifferent USB port.
• When a USB device is added/removed on your local computer, UDBDeview utility automatically updates the list of USB devices.
  But.. If you UDBDeview is connected to a remote computer, the list won't refresh automatically when a deviceis added or removed. You must refresh it manually, by pressing F5 key.

Connecting To Remote Computer

The following command-line options allows you to connect to remote computers.You must login to the remote computer with admin user in order to use these options.

• /remote
  Allows you to connect a single remote computer.
  For Example:
  USBDeview.exe /remote MyComp
• /remotefile
  Allows you to connect multiple computers, and view all their USB activity in one window.The computers list file should be a simple Ascii text file with computer names separated by colon, semicolon, space, tab characters or CRLF.
  For Example:
  USBDeview.exe /remotefile 'c:tempcomp.txt'

In order to successfully get full admin access to the remote computer, read this Blog post:How to connect a remote Windows 7/Vista/XP computer with NirSoft utilities.

Connecting To external SYSTEM registry file

If you have the 'SYSTEM' registry file of external operating system, you can usethe following command-line option to read the USB devices list from it:

For each USB device, extended information is displayed: Device name/description, device type, serial number(for mass storage devices), the date/time that device was added, VendorID, ProductID, and more..
USBDeview also allows you to uninstall USB devices that you previously used, disconnect USB devices that are currently connected to your computer, as well as to disable and enable USB devices.
You can also use USBDeview on a remote computer, as long as you login to that computer with admin user.

'Vendor Name' And 'Product Name' Columns

Starting from version 1.35, you can view the vendor name and product name of your USB devices.In order to use this feature, you have to download the USB ID's list of Stephen J. Gowdy(http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids) and put the file in the same folder of USBDeview.exe
The name of the file must remain as 'usb.ids'.

Speed Test for USB Flash Drives

Starting from version 1.40, USBDeview allows you to test the read/write speed of your USB flash drive.The test is made by writing a large file (named $speed_test_nirsoft$.dat) into your USB flash drive, and then reading it back for testing the read speed.Be aware that you need at least 100 MB of free disk space in order to successfully make this speed test.Also, be aware that this test is made with sequential read and write operations.

Get Usb Serial Number

Be aware that this feature only works if USBDeview detects the drive letter of the device.

Execute a command when you insert a USB device

Starting from version 1.10, USBDeview allows you to execute a command from exe/cmd/bat file in every time that inserta USB device to your system.In order to use this feature, go to 'Options->Advanced Options', select the 'Execute.' check-box, and typethe exe/cmd file that you want to run.You can also use the following special variables in this command string: %device_name%, %device_desc%, %drive%, %serial_number%, %vid%, %pid%, %vid_hex%, %pid_hex%, %device_type%, %service_name%, %device_class%, %device_mfg%
USBDeview will automatically replace these variables with the appropriate data of the device that you inserted.For example, if you want to pass to your exe file 2 parameters - the serial number of the device, and the drive letter:
c:temptest.exe '%serial_number%' '%drive%'

Known Limitations/Issues

• For all devices except 'Mass Storage' Devices:If you plug a device to one USB port, and then you plug the same device to another USB port, a newrecord of the same device will be created for each USB port that you plug. So if you see multiple lines for exactly the same device, it means that you plugged it to different USB ports. The USB ports that you plugged are specified in 'Hub/Port' column.
  However, for 'Mass Storage' device, only one record is created for each device, even if you plug it todifferent USB port.
• When a USB device is added/removed on your local computer, UDBDeview utility automatically updates the list of USB devices.
  But.. If you UDBDeview is connected to a remote computer, the list won't refresh automatically when a deviceis added or removed. You must refresh it manually, by pressing F5 key.

Connecting To Remote Computer

The following command-line options allows you to connect to remote computers.You must login to the remote computer with admin user in order to use these options.

• /remote
  Allows you to connect a single remote computer.
  For Example:
  USBDeview.exe /remote MyComp
• /remotefile
  Allows you to connect multiple computers, and view all their USB activity in one window.The computers list file should be a simple Ascii text file with computer names separated by colon, semicolon, space, tab characters or CRLF.
  For Example:
  USBDeview.exe /remotefile 'c:tempcomp.txt'

In order to successfully get full admin access to the remote computer, read this Blog post:How to connect a remote Windows 7/Vista/XP computer with NirSoft utilities.

Connecting To external SYSTEM registry file

If you have the 'SYSTEM' registry file of external operating system, you can usethe following command-line option to read the USB devices list from it:
/regfile

For Example:
USBDeview.exe /regfile 'c:tempregfilesSYSTEM'
USBDeview.exe /regfile 'd:windowssystem32configSYSTEM'

This option has some limitations:

• You cannot read a Registry file of Windows XP/2003/Vista from Windows 2000 Machine.
• USBDeview works in read-only mode. (You cannot uninstall a device from external file)

Stop/Disconnect Command-Line Options

• /stop {/showmsg} {RemoteComputer}
  Stop/disconnect a USB device by specifying its name or description.
  You don't have to specify the whole name or description.You can also specify only a part of the name or description string, and USBDeviewwill identify it. For example, If the device name is 'Kingston DataTraveler 2.0', you can simply put 'kingston' or 'DataTraveler' in the device name parameter, and USBDeview will disconnect theright device.You can also specify the instance ID string of the device.
  If you want that a message/balloon will be displayed after the device is disconnected, add the '/showmsg' parameter. (Windows 2000 displays a message-box, Windows XP displays a balloon)
  If you want to disconnect a device in a remote computer, specify the remote computer name,with prefix. You must login to the remote computer with admin rights in order to do that.
  Examples:
  USBDeview.exe /stop /showmsg 'DVD RW'
  USBDeview.exe /stop 'DataTraveler'
  USBDeview.exe /stop comp01 'SanDisk Cruzer'
  USBDeview.exe /stop 'USBVid_1058&Pid_10238539583490834690'
• /stop_by_serial {/showmsg} {RemoteComputer}
  Similar to /stop command, but instead of specifying a device name, you should specify the serial number of the device. Works only with mass storage devices.
  Examples:
  USBDeview.exe /stop_by_serial ea051261
  USBDeview.exe /stop_by_serial /showmsg 876534513
• /stop_by_drive {/showmsg} {RemoteComputer}
  Stop/disconnect a USB device by specifying its drive letter.Works only with USB flash drives and CD/DVD devices.
  Examples:
  USBDeview.exe /stop_by_drive g:

In my one project, I need to create an application to upgrade the firmware of the device. Here comport is using for the communication. We cannot fix the COM ID of the USB device in the application because the device could be enumerated with different com id on a different machine as per the availability.

So the solution is that displays the list of all known com ports and users select the correct com port. But it is not a good idea to show all com port, I want that application to identify the com id itself.

Every USB device has a unique hardware id (the combination of VID and PID), so to accomplish the above task my approach is to get COM PORT of USB Serial Device on the basis of VID/PID. The registry of the windows kept the information of the device, so simple logic here to open the windows registry and get the com id.
