Disable Autoplay

[Korkut]

Hi,

This tool is great i enjoy using it.

I disabled xp's autoplay feature (in fact crippled it delibarately) and now it doesn't run any autorun.inf junk when I insert any disk or double click but it is still able to show icons and receive hardware notifications.

But virtual drives like to enable it again and again when i unmount/mount an image and also the hard one is enabled again.

Is it possible to add a "Don't load AutoPlayHandler interface" option to DAEMON or any other way to disable it?

You make great software.

(BTW i removed entries under \HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AutoplayHandlerProperties\CLSID \
and \HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AutoplayHandlerProperties\CLSID \
in addition to other ways of disabling autoplay)

Have you seen the Auto Insert Notification checkbox in DAEMON Tools 4.xx or is that method not good enough to suit your purposes?

[Korkut]

Auto insert is not enabled. Altough it is still working that way

holding shift

What if you hold shift while mounting (yes, i know this is annoying, i'm just curious if this would work)?

you can use tweakUI to completely disable autoplay for a particular drive
you can find it on microsoft website

[puppeteer]

if you go to start->run-> gpedit.msc

then go to
computer configuration
administrative templates
system

then look in the right for 'Turn off Autoplay', ope it and enable it on CD-ROM drives or all drives, whatever you prefer
