Consider the following code:

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)
Global $cancelled = False,$inserted = False

MyShowDialog()

Func MyShowDialog()
    $Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 212, 92, 193, 115)
    GUICtrlCreateLabel("Waiting for you to insert USB stick", 16, 16, 165, 17)
    $cancel = GUICtrlCreateButton("Cancel", 120, 48, 65, 25, 0)
    GUICtrlSetOnEvent($cancel,"ClickedOnCancel")
    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

    While Not ($cancelled or $inserted)
        Sleep(100)
    WEnd
    GUIDelete($Form1)
EndFunc

Func ClickedOnCancel()
    $cancelled = True
EndFunc

How do I set $inserted to true when the user inserts a USB stick labelled "Documents"?

Full example:

$bool = False
While 1
    Sleep(1000)
    If Not $bool Then
        $drives = DriveGetDrive("REMOVABLE")
        If $drives <> "" Then
            For $drive In $drives
                If DriveGetLabel($drive) == "Documents" Then
                    $bool = True
                    MsgBox(0, "Permission Granted", "The right USB stick was inserted!")
                    ExitLoop 2
                EndIf
            Next
        EndIf
    EndIf
WEnd

Hi,

Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1)

MsgBox(0, 0, _getNewUSB())

Func _getNewUSB()
    Local $strComputer = ".", $objEvent = 0
    Local $objWMIService = ObjGet("winmgmts:\\" & $strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
    Local $colEvents = $objWMIService.ExecNotificationQuery _
            ("Select * From __InstanceOperationEvent Within 5 Where " _
             & "TargetInstance isa 'Win32_LogicalDisk'")
    While 1
        $objEvent = $colEvents.NextEvent
        If $objEvent.TargetInstance.DriveType = 2 Then
            If $objEvent.Path_.Class() = "__InstanceCreationEvent" Then Return $objEvent.TargetInstance.DeviceId
        EndIf
        Sleep(10)
    WEnd
EndFunc   ;==>_getNewUSB
