sir Wrode the code beloow may work   namespace  ConsoleApplication1   {      using  System;      using  System.Collections.Generic;      using  System.Management;  // need to add System.Management to your project references.          class  Program     {        static   void  Main( string [] args)       {         var usbDevices = GetUSBDevices();             foreach  (var usbDevice  in  usbDevices)         {           Console.WriteLine( "Device ID: {0}, PNP Device ID: {1}, Description: {2}" ,               usbDevice.DeviceID, usbDevice.PnpDeviceID, usbDevice.Description);         }            Console.Read();       }           static  List  GetUSBDevices()       {         List  devices =  new  List ();            ManagementObjectCollection collection;          using  (var searcher =  new  ManagementObjectSearcher(@ "Select * From Win32_USBHub" ))           collection = searcher.Get();                   foreach  (var device  in  collection)         {           devices.Add( new  USBDeviceInfo(           ( string )device.GetPropertyValue( "DeviceID" ),           ( string )device.GetPropertyValue( "PNPDeviceID" ),           ( string )device.GetPropertyValue( "Description" )           ));         }            collection.Dispose();          return  devices;       }     }         class  USBDeviceInfo     {        public  USBDeviceInfo( string  deviceID,  string  pnpDeviceID,  string  description)       {          this .DeviceID = deviceID;          this .PnpDeviceID = pnpDeviceID;          this .Description = description;       }        public   string  DeviceID {  get ;  private   set ; }        public   string  PnpDeviceID {  get ;  private   set ; }        public   string  Description {  get ;  private   set ; }     }   }   If you change the ManagementObjectSearcher to the following:      ManagementObjectSearcher searcher =            new  ManagementObjectSearcher( "root\CIMV2" ,           @ "SELECT * FROM Win32_PnPEntity where DeviceID Like " "USB%" "" );    So the  "GetUSBDevices() looks like this"       static  List  GetUSBDevices()   {     List  devices =  new  List ();        ManagementObjectCollection collection;      using  (var searcher =  new  ManagementObjectSearcher(@ "SELECT * FROM Win32_PnPEntity where DeviceID Like " "USB%" "" ))       collection = searcher.Get();               foreach  (var device  in  collection)     {       devices.Add( new  USBDeviceInfo(       ( string )device.GetPropertyValue( "DeviceID" ),       ( string )device.GetPropertyValue( "PNPDeviceID" ),       ( string )device.GetPropertyValue( "Description" )       ));     }        collection.Dispose();      return  devices;   }       some site addres given bellow    https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/14155/An-Asynchronous-Socket-Server-and-Client

Hello Dotnet, You can use namespace System.Management and WQL language to get the USB device details. I have attached the sample code also to get name of USB device.   Alternatively you can follow the link below to get the name and device volume   https://www.codeguru.com/columns/dotnet/detecting-usb-devices-using-c.html
