I would like to make an autorun for my USB Thumbdrive, that is when I insert it to computers, the application that I want it autorun can run automatically.

I have make an Autorun.inf in the root of my USB Thumbdrive.

[Autorun]

Open=ABC.exe

Icon=Ringe.ico

Well, the icon has successfully replace the XP Drive icon, means the line Icon=Ringe.ico works.

But why ABC.exe do not run on itself when I insert it to PC?

Any ideas on creating autorun?

If possible, I do not want to use software like MultiSet (But MultiSet only works on disc)

But never mind of that, just post ideas you want to suggest.

Thank you very much!!!

Are you sure that autorun isn't simply disabled? For as far as I can see your INF-file should work.

For any device to allow autorun, it must not be marked a removable device (and your USB devices are obviously removable). There are 3rd party utilities you can install on the host OS to allow USB flash drives to autorun, and there are even (somewhat expensive) packages that you can put on the USB key itself when you format it to allow it to work in XP and later systems. But out of the box, autorun for USB doesn't work unless the device itself is formatted a specific way (SanDisk keys come with some software they wrote to make this happen, for instance).

It should be an .ini not an .inf

-gosh

There are TWO ways to make a USB stick seen as "Fixed":

1) Find the controller chip manufacturer tool and "flip" the "Removable" bit off, some utilities have been found for some chips, see this thread here:

2) Use a Filter Driver, there are two known ones, the "Hitachi Microdrive Filter" and the Anton Bassov's "dummydisk.sys":

Whether any of the above will make the autorun feature working I cannot say.

If they are not your computers, autorun might have been (should be) disabled for security.

Did you mean by making a USB seen as "Fixed", the Thumbdrive will be displayed as a hard drive instead of Removable disk?

I guess it is.

So, I downloaded the checkudisk.rar from the page you had provided.

This is the info displayed:

***************************************

Any ideas on this product, please?

Is there any software can be used for all USB Thumbdrive to create autorun?

Or is there any special .inf or .ini file can be created for this purpose?

Sorry, but if it's not in that thread or in any link on it, it means that the Kingston tool does not exist (or more probably has NOT been found yet).

However, you seem to fail the point of previous posts two conditions must be true concurrently, the settings on the machine AND how the stick is "seen".

If you do not find the tool to modify the hardware, you need to modify the software, and since most probably you need to tweak something on the machine anyway....

Here are a couple of related threads with some good links and info:
