Re: Disable automatic execution DVD

  • Start / Run / type REGEDIT
  • Navigate in the tree until the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Services \ Cdrom
  • In the right pane, right-click on the "AutoRun" / Edit
  • In the dialog box that appears (Edit DWORD Value), in the "Value data" type 1 to enable autorun (start the CD automatically) or 0 to disable (the CD will not start at its insertion).
  • Restart the PC to implement the changes.

Re: Disable automatic execution DVD

Additional Information
There are two other registry keys that can affect this functionality:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
NoDriveTypeAutoRun = 0x00000095

-and-
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
NoDriveTypeAutoRun = 0x00000095
The correct value for each is 0x00000095.
