Remarks
Windows sets the value of DEVPKEY_Device_InstallState to one of the CM_INSTALL_STATE_Xxx values that are defined in Cfgmgr32.h. The CM_INSTALL_STATE_Xxx values correspond to the DEVICE_INSTALL_STATE enumeration values.
You can call CM_Get_DevNode_Property or SetupDiGetDeviceProperty to retrieve the value of DEVPKEY_Device_InstallState.
Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP support this property, but do not support the DEVPKEY_Device_InstallState property key. Instead, you can use the corresponding SPDRP_INSTALL_STATE identifier to access the value of the property on these earlier versions of Windows. For information about how to access this property value on these earlier versions of Windows, see Accessing Device Instance SPDRP_Xxx Properties.
Requirements
Version: Windows Vista and later versions of Windows Header: Devpkey.h (include Devpkey.h)
