The device is not accessible via the host machine's file system. There is no local drive letter or UNC share assigned to the device, so you can't use filesystem-based functions to access the device's files.

The easiest solution for that would be to disable the plugin if the IDE was not started with /highdpi:unaware and document that restriction. That would help those who miss the plugin but can live without high dpi support in the IDE. Of course there would still be a lot of moaning about this but maybe less than about the total absence of this plugin and any communication about the reason for that. (But that's not going to happen anyway ...)
