I am using XP-Pro. My default player is Divx Player. When I insert a CD with an avi burned on it, Windows Media Player starts playing the movie because I screwed up one time and clicked okay when the "always perform this action" box was checked. I looked in the registry for wmplayer.exe but as you can imagine, theres like a million of them. How can I change that action to "do nothing"? Any help appreciated. Thankz
I'm not positive, but it sounds like you just need to disable the Autoplay feature. I can't tell you how to get there in XP, but in 98 you'd go to Control Panel - System - Device Manager, then open you CD Drive Properties and uncheck the box that says "Auto insert notification".
OK CHIEF THE MAIN HACKER IS IN THE BUILDING, GO TO
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CDRom]
FIND A KEY CALLED AUTORUN , CHANGE THE VALUE TO 0 DECIMAL.
Right on! That did it. Thanks.
So...got porn?
also could have just gone on options in wmplayer and unchecked a few of the file types which wmplayer is default for...
or just go to my computer right click the cd drive and click properties and autoplay tab and make the changes
yes this is the easyway :)Quote:
