[Beginning with Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, the Virtual Disk Service COM interface is superseded by the Windows Storage Management API.]

Retrieves the name of the file system on a partition on the disk at a specified byte offset.

  [in]  ULONGLONG ullOffset,
  [out] LPWSTR    *ppwszFileSystemTypeName
);

Parameters

[in] ullOffset

Byte offset of the partition from the beginning of the disk. This offset must be the offset of a start of a partition.

[out] ppwszFileSystemTypeName

Return value

This method can return standard HRESULT values, such as E_INVALIDARG or E_OUTOFMEMORY, and VDS-specific return values. It can also return converted system error codes using the HRESULT_FROM_WIN32 macro. Errors can originate from VDS itself or from the underlying VDS provider that is being used.
