Format Removable media with c# programming

Question

I want to format (FAT32) removable drive with c# programming. In the internet I found a way, but the problem is that it opens the generic windows format program. But I want to do it with C# only and no built in windows support.

My method is:

// FAT32 Format Button click event
[DllImport("shell32.dll")]
static extern uint SHFormatDrive(IntPtr hwnd, uint drive, uint fmtID, uint options);

Answer 1

You can use wmi, there is a method that allow this.
