This is my code:

C++
HANDLE HandelUsb= CreateFile(L"\\\\.\\G:", GENERIC_READ | GENERIC_WRITE, FILE_SHARE_WRITE, NULL, OPEN_EXISTING, 0, NULL);
    if (HandelUsb == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
    {
        printf("Terminal failure: Unable to open usb ERROR CODE:0x%x\n", GetLastError());
        return 1;
    }
 
    DISK_GEOMETRY d = { 0 };
    DWORD dwReturned = 0;
   
    int gs =DeviceIoControl(HandelUsb, IOCTL_DISK_GET_DRIVE_GEOMETRY, NULL, 0, &d, sizeof(DISK_GEOMETRY),&dwReturned, NULL);
    printf("%d\n", gs);
   
    if (d.MediaType == RemovableMedia)
    {
        DWORD dwReturned2 = 0;
        MEDIA_SERIAL_NUMBER_DATA data={ 0 };
        if (DeviceIoControl(HandelUsb, IOCTL_STORAGE_GET_MEDIA_SERIAL_NUMBER, NULL, 0, &data,sizeof(MEDIA_SERIAL_NUMBER_DATA), &dwReturned2, NULL)) {
                printf("SerialNumberLength %d\nResult %d\nReserved[2] %s\nSerialNumberData[1] %s ", data.SerialNumberLength, data.Result, data.Reserved, data.SerialNumberData);
        }
        else {
                printf("faild to get serial number ERROR CODE:0x%x\n", GetLastError());
           
        }
    }
 
    CloseHandle(HandelUsb);
    return 0;

Everything works well except for the function
C++
DeviceIoControl(HandelUsb, IOCTL_STORAGE_GET_MEDIA_SERIAL_NUMBER, NULL, 0, &data,sizeof(MEDIA_SERIAL_NUMBER_DATA), &dwReturned2, NULL)

It always fails (returns a value of 0), GetLastError returns the value 0X1 (problem function).

Maybe someone here can show me what I'm missing here?

* I ran Windus 7

What I have tried:

Change the permissions function CreateFile (Add GENERIC_EXECUTE , replace to GENERIC_ALL add FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL ), play with the parameters of the DeviceIoControl.

I think you might need FILE_SHARE_READ access to read the device serial number?
