Enable/Disable a specific USB port with a batch file or similiar?
As topic says - I'm looking for a way to disable a very specific usb port when I'm running the batch file, or any other method. It just has to be a file that enables / disables the usb port.
Also I'm using win7
thanks in advance!

I interpreted your original question as you knew which specific USB port.
Will it be different each time?
You can look at the Registry to see USB usage history
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\

Also i found the device in device manager
edit: it's the same usb port every time i want to shut off - just havnt found it yet
edit2: looked through the registry in the directory u typed but i only found disks and cd drive information?
edit3: found the usb history in "USB" though - still not sure how to identify since most of the information for the usb is the same as the others (drivers, dates etc). Only thing that is different is the location "Location 0 (Port_#0004.Hub_#0001)".
edit9972: Found the location information, although a lot of them has that same location, which one is the right one?
