This tips is inspired by my friend question, he want to disable the autorun abilities when inserting the CD or DVD disk in the CD or DVD room
Do you know why that he want to disable the auto run on windows?
Every time you insert disk to that cdrom, your computer will automatically load and read the CD contents, if it only contents a valid data if would be okey, but it would become disaster when inserted CD content a virus.
It is only a tips, but you may decide not to apply this to your computer.
Here is the step:
- You should run GPEDIT.MSC, GPEDIT is use to edit a Grpup Policy in your local computer, Click Start, Run and type GPEDIT.MSC and press Enter;
- Go to Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> System;
- Find the entry for Turn autoplay off and modify it as you desire.
- Close GPEDIT and restart your computer, after reboot when you insert any disk it will not automatically start.
Using this tips is your own risk, I writing this and tested only at my computer.
