RemoveAccessPath method of the MSFT_Partition class

Remove the access path from the partition.

Syntax

UInt32 RemoveAccessPath(
  [in]  String AccessPath,
  [out] String ExtendedStatus
);

Parameters

AccessPath [in]

Specifies the access path, which is a user-mode path that can be used to open the partition. An access path can be a drive letter (for example, "C:" or "C:\") or a path to an empty directory on an NTFS volume. The access path string does not require a trailing backslash.

This parameter is required and cannot be NULL.

This parameter allows the storage provider to return extended (implementation-specific) error information.
