I have implemented the solution to the SO question in my code but I am looking for some more information from the connected USB devices.
I notice that in my device manager there is quite a bit more information offered.
I am specifically interested in knowing the manufactures of the devices.
I am unsure of how I might go about determining what other properties are available from the GetPropertyValue
method usage seen in SO question. I have tried some of the keywords in the last but they all report errors, so I assume that are not available properties.
Any idea how I might go about getting more information that just the DeviceID
, PnpDeviceID
, and Description
?
EDIT: For anyone wondering here is the full list of properties and the values that I get for them. None of the devices provide more or less than what is seen here from what I can tell (possibly the cast to string?).
Availability:
Caption: USB Root Hub
ClassCode:
ConfigManagerErrorCode: 0
ConfigManagerUserConfig: False
CreationClassName: Win32_USBHub
CurrentAlternateSettings:
CurrentConfigValue:
Description: USB Root Hub
DeviceID: USB\ROOT_HUB20\########
ErrorCleared:
ErrorDescription:
GangSwitched:
InstallDate:
LastErrorCode:
Name: USB Root Hub
NumberOfConfigs:
NumberOfPorts:
PNPDeviceID: USB\ROOT_HUB20\4&\########&0
PowerManagementCapabilities:
PowerManagementSupported:
ProtocolCode:
Status: OK
StatusInfo:
SubclassCode:
SystemCreationClassName: Win32_ComputerSystem
SystemName: ASystemName
USBVersion:
And edited code from the linked SO answer, but with all of the properties.

The Properties
collection property will contain all of the properties you can access.
