Autorun exe on USB Storage device

[ABEO]

I have recently bought a 1Gb USB Mass storage device(keyring thing) and I want to make it autorun the way CDs do using the autorun.ini file.

I have tried it to no avail, anyone know if its possible and if so how to accomplish it?

Thanks in advance

AutoRun USB does the same thing for USB Flash Drives that autorun.inf files do for CD's! Automatically launch the program of your choice on you USB Flash Drive everytime you plug it in! No more searching for exe's through file explorer, just plug it in and go!

I want it to be like a CD and autorun on any PC, can that program be used to do that?

i guess so, try it

I can't see an option that does that, in the help it says it will autorun on any pc that program is installed on.

Anything else to try?

....and I want to make it autorun the way CDs do using the autorun.ini file....

i believe it is the autorun.inf file

Yeah I tried a standard AUTORUN.INF file but that didn't work

I was wondering if there was a different format or layout to use.

I don't want it just to autorun on my PM, I want it to automatically run a program which I have made.

So that when it is plugged into another PC, it will run this exe I have made(will be a menu) and then I can choose an option.

I am facing the same problem.

Is there Nothing that will AUTORUN a file off a USB Memory devise?

UDRW are doing it, but only off of their devise....

Any advise woulod be appreciated.

Thanks

There is a Commercial solution:

Can't say if it works.

Here is a MS knowledge base for Win98:

a win2k one:

but the above means that you have to edit the registry.
