Default C: Drive Attribute

Somehow my c: drive behaves like a media drive (some
program must have changed it's attributes). When I double
click it it does not open because it says open presention.
When I right click it has an additional option, unlike
the other drives which is "auto play".
How can I chenge this back tobehave like a regular drive.
Thanks
Paul

Hi Paul,

See if there is an autorun.inf file on the root of C:\, if so delete it.
