Working with Windows APIs is usually easiest from C++ (and there are more examples available). Personally, I would still use C# as I am more comfortable with that, but it really comes down to what you are more comfortable with. There will still be application logic that surrounds the underlying API calls and once you have created the classes to handle that, the majority of the code will more than likely be test flow and test cases.
