retrieve information about the files in a driver

[roxelana]

Hello everyone.
I've started doing a project about drivers. It will execute like this:

• choose a driver to start execution
• for example, you may choose your hard disk or your flash disk
• when the program starts execution, first it will check the free disk space to decide that it can execute or not
• if it starts execution: it will get the information of folders in that driver
• then it will get the information about the files in those folders
• then it will decide the types of those files
• then it will create some folders like "mp3 files", "jpeg files", "word documents" etc and it will put the music files into the "mp3 files" folder, pictures into the "jpeg files" folder etc
• so, when it ends execution, there will be the new folders with your files but now they're organized due to their types.

Sorry for my bad English! It's not my mother language..

Now I'm planning my algorithm and I need some help. I don't know how to reach to the information about the files in drivers. And also I cannot decide which platform to use. I'm planning to do this project in MS Visual Studio and using C++ but I'm not sure.
I need your advices.
Thank you...
