disable autoplay media files on download
 

Hello,

m4a files auto open and play when I download them, whereas mp3 files do not. How can I disable the autoplay of m4a files?

Thanks. Sorry, if this is the wrong group, but it seemed more relevant than others I found.

Check the browser setting. Whatever that it.

Don't you think that the answer will strongly depend on the browser you are
using ?

This group is about the Windows XP OS. Are you using that OS ?

Than again, depending on the browser you are using there might be a
better-suited newsgroup. Like "mozilla.general" on the "new.mozilla.org"
newsserver for FireFox related questions.

Ok, thanks. I thought it was strange that this was labeled a windowsxp group, as I thought such a group would be inactive, but since there was activity, I thought it might be a general usage windows group. So, sorry about that.

If you thought about it than you needen't be sorry.

Regardless, I didn't think it was the browser (chrome)
....
so thank you for the suggestion of checking into the browser settings.

I'm not the one who suggested that, that was JJ.
