The free space percentage can be calculated using the formula:

Here is a crude implementation:

But... the values you have to use to get the correct percentage in all cases, are:

Total Space: The value obtained by calling the DeviceIoControl API with dwIoControlCode = IOCTL_DISK_GET_LENGTH_INFO

Free Space: the TFreeQ value, as in the code above...

Regarding UNC paths, i don't currently have a mapped drive, so i can't recommend anything on that...

Hey guys!

Imagine how big my smile was this morning.

Thanks for the guidance and help.

Samael's percentage code works perfectly. And...

Maluc's updated version worked perfectly on the equipment I've been using for test purposes. Plus...

Getting Icons from the system shell was a great idea Maluc.

ZIP drives and USB memory reader drives now show OEM icons. How cool is that?


@Maluc

Holy cow Maluc!

A 300+GB Hard Drive? Sea using old technology still. Biggest hard drive is 20GB which is way more than needed for 32bit 9x platform.

Which... believe it or not, came out of a low-end Win95 PC someone left on the curb for trash pickup two summers ago. It was using a disk manager that loaded BIOS extensions from disk since the PC BIOS did not support it.

That was a good day when I found this disk inside that old bucket!

Anyway my WinAsm Studio PC uses a 6GB disk, and over half is still available, even with a 1GB Memory Paging File and all softwares loaded.

Regarding 64bit platforms...

Some posts on other boards say that, despite XP and Vistas, true 64bit that behaves and performs like Win32 is still some years away. If that really is the case, why not wait until the software side catches up? Or..

Is that misleading?

Thanks again guys!
