It is necessary to disable or prohibit any actions on a specific flash drive. For example, 2 flash drives F1 and F2 are inserted into the computer. It is necessary that the user could not use F1. but at the same time worked with F2.
I found a way to disable all flash drives, but for a specific one, I could not get a solution.
There is third-party software that repeats the functionality, but I could not understand how it works.
Update: It is
necessary that the solution does not require a reboot to apply.

Did similar through WMI. With it, you can hang hooks. You can filter flash drives by serial number or by model name.

It seems that Kaspersky supported the use of only the specified flash drives.

all the names of flash drives are saved in the registry branch at HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\usbstor as highlights. you can set the rights to a specific branch in the form of a ban on reading and writing. the only thing you need to determine which record corresponds to a particular flash drive. you can do this by deleting all entries from the usbstor branch and inserting the desired flash drive, then the new entry that appears will be the one you are looking for.
