Format a Drive from C#

Question

I need to format a pen drive from within a C# application.

I've googled around and the only thing I can find is http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa394515(VS.85).aspx

But I need it to work on Win XP, so that solution won't do for me.

Can anyone suggest an alternate method?

Answer 1

You could try to simply fork (not the linux fork :) ) a new process and run the Windows format command from inside your C# program.
