USB STick scanning

[AllSystemGo]

Hi guys,

I'm trying to create a new script that scans all the USB port to find my USB stick. Is there a way to do that??

What I would like to do ultimately is to be able to scan all USB ports and once it find the USB stick then go and get my config file on it! Is there a way to accomplish that??

Thank you

Cheers

Try putting a file with an odd name in your stick (ex. "Stick_identifier") with nothing inside it

then get the drive list and for each drive verify if "Stick_identifier" exists

if yes... it's your stick

then just FileCopy(path,newpath)

Great idea. Didn't think about that!!

Thxs.

so for example:

$dirves = DriveGetDrive("ALL")

for $i = 0 to UBound($drives) - 1 ;loop
 if FileExists($drives[$i] & "\Stick_identifier") then 
  $exists= 1
  $drive = $dirves[$i]
  exitloop
 else
  $exists = 0
 EndIf
next

If $exists = 1 then Copy("settings_path",$drive & "\settings_file")
