Remarks
You can use the value of DEVPKEY_NAME to identify a device setup class to an end-user in a user interface item.
If DEVPKEY_DeviceClass_Name is set, the value of DEVPKEY_NAME is the same as the value of the DEVPKEY_DeviceClass_Name device property. Otherwise, the DEVPKEY_NAME value is the same as the value of the DEVPKEY_DeviceClass_ClassName device property.
You can call CM_Get_Class_Property or SetupDiGetClassProperty to retrieve the value of DEVPKEY_NAME for a device setup class.
Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, and Windows 2000 do not directly support a corresponding name property. However, these earlier versions of Windows do support properties that correspond to DEVPKEY_DeviceClass_Name and DEVPKEY_DeviceClass_ClassName.
