DriveUnlock

Restores the eject feature of the specified drive.

DriveUnlock Drive

Parameters

Drive

Type: String

The drive letter followed by a colon and an optional backslash (might also work on UNC paths and mapped drives).

Error Handling

An exception is thrown on failure.

Remarks

This function needs to be called multiple times if the drive was locked multiple times (at least for some drives). For example, if DriveLock("D:") was called three times, DriveUnlock("D:") might need to be called three times to unlock it. Because of this and the fact that there is no way to determine whether a drive is currently locked, it is often useful to keep track of its lock-state in a variable.
