Disable for a single type

To disable autoplay for a single type (eg. DVD movies, or audio CDs) first make sure that the “Use AutoPlay for all media and devices” is checked. Select the type that you want to disable and then select “Take no action” from the drop down menu. In the above example we disable autoplay for blank CDs :

Depending on the size of your hard disk and the amount of files that you have, this can make the whole process really slow.

To avoid such problems you can set windows not to search the file index :

  1. Right-click on the Start Button and select Properties.
  2. Click on the Customize button.
  3. Uncheck Search Communications.
  4. Set Search Files to Don’t Search for files.
  5. Click OK.
