CheckAndWaitForGWE X   Checks whether window manager is present, and if so, waits until it has initialized.
CloseUsernamePasswordDialog X   Closes a username and password dialog box.
ConnectionDialog X   Displays a dialog box that allows a user to connect to a network resource. This function is called by the network redirector when an application calls WNetConnectionDialog1.
CreateScanDevice X   Displays a dialog box that allows the user to manipulate, find, query, add, and delete Bluetooth-enabled devices.
DisconnectDialog X   Displays a dialog box that allows a user to disconnect from a network resource. This function is called by the network redirector when the application calls WNetDisconnectDialog.
GetDriverName X   Prompts the user to enter a driver for an unrecognized device. Installable bus drivers in the operating system (OS) such as universal serial bus (USB) and PC Cards call this function.
GetIPAddress X   Prompts the user for the IP address if the Serial Line Internet Protocol (SLIP) connection does not have a valid IP address. Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) calls this function.
GetNetString X   Loads a string used by the network user interface. Retrieves a string resource from Netui.res, typically in preparation for calling another NetUI function, such as NetMsgBox.
GetNewPassword X   Displays the dialog box that prompts the user for a new password when their password has expired. Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) calls this function.
GetNewPasswordEx X   Similar to GetNewPassword, but also returns a handle to a window that can be used to dismiss the dialog box programmatically through CloseUsernamePasswordDialog.
GetResourcePassword X   Prompts the user to enter a password for a password-protected network share. The redirector calls this function.
GetUsernamePassword X   Retrieves user credentials for OS components such as PPP and the redirector. Interacts with the OS credential manager to persist user credentials as appropriate.
GetUsernamePasswordEx X   Similar to GetUsernamePassword. Also returns a handle to a window that can be used to dismiss the dialog box programmatically through CloseUsernamePasswordDialog.
LineConfigEdit X   Displays a dialog box that allows a user to edit the configurations of a specified modem line. This function is called when Telephony API (TAPI) calls lineConfigDialogEdit on a Unimodem device.
LineTranslateDialog X   Displays a dialog box that allows a user to change the current location of a phone number about to be dialed, adjust location and calling card parameters, and see the effect on a phone number about to be dialed. This function is called when Telephony API (TAPI) calls lineTranslateDialog on a Unimodem device.
