  1. USB3.0 stick will not autoplay


    A USB3.0 stick shows in THIS PC and 'works', but it does NOT autoplay in the USB ports where other USB sticks do. So the Windows setting and the registry key for Autoplay are correct, but THIS USB does not obey it. I am ONLY interested in its contents being displayed in File Explorer. It behaves the same even if I use Safe Removal.

    :)

    I suggest you to follow the Methods below.

    Method 1: Hardware Troubleshoot

    Windows 10 has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with hardware and devices. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter to check if the issue is with your touch pad.

      view all option on the left panel
    • Run the Windows Store apps troubleshooter

    Method 2:
    Update USB Controllers.

    To update the USB Controllers from Device Manager follow these steps.

    • Go to Device manager in control panel.
    • Select Device manager and a Device Manager window will pop-up.
    • Double Click on USB Controllers to expand.
    • Right click on the USB Controllers that is listed and select Update.

    Method 3 : Follow these steps to specify what should happen when you insert different types of digital media into your computer.

    1. Open AutoPlay by clicking the Start button, in the search box, type autoplay, and then click AutoPlay.

    2. Under MEDIA, find the type of media that you want to change the AutoPlay setting for.

    3. Click the action that you want AutoPlay to take when you insert CD/DVD into your computer.

    4. Click Save.

    Hope this information is helpful. Please feel free to reply in case you face any other issues with Windows in future.
