Do you have a link to this Query?
MSDN doesn't have that function.

>>>\Device\Harddisk\Volume1\Windows\system32\notepad.exe

If that is the actual string returned, then maybe this would work?

I suppose you just know that it is a device of some sort.
"\\Device"

You can  GetDriveType
"\\Harddisk"
"\\Cdrom"

You can query the drive for PARTITION_INFORMATION_EX
"\\Volume"+pie.PartitionNumber
Or my previous suggestion GetVolumeInformation
"\\"+lpVolumeNameBuffer

Add the path.
