Open files on a volume

NTDEV

This might be a better question for the FSD list, but here goes anyway.

Is there any way to get a list of files open on a particular volume?
And, if so where could I find out how to do so?

Thanks

No, there isn’t. There are no APIs exported by FSDs to enumerate the
list of open files on a volume.

Thanks, that’s what I figured - and exactly what I wanted to hear :slight_smile:

Huh… well there are always ‘hacky’ ways to achieve the same purpose,
such as walking through all handle tables in the system (what I think
sysinternal’s tools do).
