It's used on the TomTom devices in Renault cars. Now that may be a bit of hardware that's harder to get your hands on ;) Joking aside, this call should fail, i.e. return INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE (ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND)
Interesting. It does make the difference here and my device is a TomTom ONE. If I create a dummy filesystem TomTom HOME detects the device and the app is very much usable; I was able to update the device for example.
If I remove the file detection fails again. Perhaps there's a second file that's also sufficient for detection of the device.
