    AutoRun Settings 0.x


    Easy access to basic registry settings for AutoRun under Windows 2000, XP. Other
    system are untested.

    Freeware

    VB6 runtime required.


    AutoRun can be disabled depending on the drive type and depending on the drive letter
    by Explorer Policies.

    These values are
    - NoDriveAutoRun
    and
    - NoDriveTypeAutoRun

    under
    SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

    They are valid under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and under HKEY_CURRENT_USER. If a value exist
    under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE then the same value under HKEY_CURRENT_USER is ignored.
    Microsoft TweakUI sets the values under HKEY_CURRENT_USER only and completely ignores
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. Furthermore TweakUI cannot make settings for hard drives and it
    _enables_ AutoRun for network drives which opens a security hole.

    NoDriveAutoRun
    http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000serv/reskit/regentry/58886.mspx

    By default (the value doesn't exist) AutoRun is enabled for all drive letters.


    NoDriveTypeAutoRun
    http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000serv/reskit/regentry/93502.mspx

    By default (the value doesn't exist) AutoRun is enabled for CD/DVD and unknown drives.
    Under XP it is enabled by default for removable drives too.

    This tool inverts these inverse settings, so to enable something set a check mark.



    For CD/DVD drives the 'auto insert notification' aka 'Media Change Notification (MCN)' must
    be active to make AutoRun possible.
    This is controlled by the value AutoRun under HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Cdrom
    http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000serv/reskit/regentry/30300.mspx

    To take effect a reboot is required.
