How can I change the setting of Hard drive (e.g. C) to 'open' by default when it is double clicked?

The default setting of my C: and D: drive is changed to be 'autoplay'.

How can I change the setting of Hard drive (e.g. C) to 'open' by default when it is double clicked?
It seems like your computer is infected with the virus.


here is the checklist to insure whether it is infected or not


Go to start %26gt;%26gt; Run%26gt;%26gt;cmd


on the prompt type cd\


you will get the default drive it may be C: or D:


again type attrib


this will display all the attributes of files including hidden files too.





Find the filename autorun.inf over there


type dir *.inf it will show you the all the inf files.


If you find autorun.inf file .Use this command


type autorun.inf


see whether if there is any things like wscript.exe or Ravmon.exe or any application ending with .exe


it is sure that your computer is effected with virus if you find any .exe over there.


If this is not case , your registry settings has been changed.


see if you can delete the autorun.inf file


del autorun.inf


if the above command deletes the autorun.inf file now the autoplay is gone on the drive.


before deleting use this command


attrib -a -r -s -h


and use the command


del autorun.inf





This will fix the autoplay for the Drive . if this doesnot fix, pls mail to me at info@hostyasui.com , I will provide you further support.
