  2. Just to confirm the script is exactly the same for vista; although depending on your autoplay setings (because it’s autoplay in vista now) there may be a default value in there; but you can go into the control panel autoplay applet and reset everything how you like.

  4. Terry, can you fix the link to your Autorun Restore Script? I’d like to download it for safe-keeping and future use since your info fixed my post-VMware Autorun dilemma. Thanks.

  5. Tried your ‘fix’ with no luck. Also tried the link to your Autorun Restore Script. That didn’t work either. I guess you just don’t care anymore. Seems to be very typical of MS Experts anymore.

  8. Thank you, thank you, thank you! We didn’t install the VMware, but had a bad virus problem instead. After all of the virus purging was done, autoplay was too. Thanks to you it is restored! A million thanks!

    Joseph B. may also need to run Autofix.exe on whatever devices are not autoplaying. I think this can be done before or after he deletes the registry files. It worked for another person whose thread I followed to find yours. I ran it before I did the registry deletions and after I rebooted, autoplay came right up!!!
