SetupRemoveInstallSectionFromDiskSpaceListA function (setupapi.h)
[This function is available for use in the operating systems indicated in the Requirements section. It may be altered or unavailable in subsequent versions. SetupAPI should no longer be used for installing applications. Instead, use the Windows Installer for developing application installers. SetupAPI continues to be used for installing device drivers.]
The SetupRemoveInstallSectionFromDiskSpaceList function searches an Install section of an INF file for CopyFiles and DelFiles lines, and removes the file operations specified in those sections from a disk-space list.

Note
The setupapi.h header defines SetupRemoveInstallSectionFromDiskSpaceList as an alias that automatically selects the ANSI or Unicode version of this function based on the definition of the UNICODE preprocessor constant. Mixing usage of the encoding-neutral alias with code that is not encoding-neutral can lead to mismatches that result in compilation or runtime errors. For more information, see Conventions for Function Prototypes.
