Is there a way, in Windows Vista, to disable the autoplay feature so that
windows explorer does not open up displaying the contents of the external hard drive after each boot up. |

Open Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> AutoPlay then set up how you
want things. Kirk "rhyde" <rhyde> wrote in message news:611a |

I want to set it for the entire external hard drive, and there is no options
there to do that. Do you have a suggestion on how to do it for the entire hard drive. the drive does not appear under devices in the AutoPlay menu. "Kirk" wrote: [..] |

Hi
You can, if you so desire, turn off autoplay on all drives, which will solve your problem on the hdd, but will also disable it for everything else, really safer anyway. Click start>run>type gpedit.msc>click ok>expand computer configuration>expand administrative templates>expand windows components>click on autoplay policies>double-click turn off autoplay in the right-hand pane>click on enabled>select all drives in the drop down>click ok>go back to start>click run>type gpupdate>click ok>your done Cheers "rhyde" <rhyde> wrote in message news:bbef [..] |
