Remarks
For devices that offer software-controllable features, such as ejection and locking, the system typically sends a DBT_DEVICEREMOVEPENDING message to let applications and device drivers end their use of the device gracefully. If the system forcibly removes a device, it may not send a DBT_DEVICEQUERYREMOVE message before doing so.
