Auto Start

[Donald Jensen]

Is there a way to turn on and off Auto Start other than using the registers
to do it.

Thanks for any help.

What do you mean by auto start?

Perhaps this can help:

Sorry, I need to turn autoplay off when I insert certain CD's. I don't want
them to execute and then turn autoplay back on when I am through.
Can I do this without going into the registry?

AutoStart for what? Programs?

Start> Run > MSCONFIG Uncheck unwanted startup items on the Startup page.
OR open the main programs and look for a menu setting that controls the
startup behavior.

Hi again, Donald. I use TweakUI for XP to toggle AutoPlay on and off as
needed. You can download this program (a part of the Power Toys) from this
site:
