Windows 10: autoplay cd in windows 10

Hi

Like many others I am unable to get my laptop to autoplay cd or dvd discs when inserted. I am not offered the option to run the aurorun file. If I open file explorer I am able to open the files and use them, but if I insert the same disc in my desktop it offers me to open the autorun file.


I have it set up so that the laptop asks me what to do each time and am given multiple options, just not the one to run the autorun app.


I have read many threads on this issue and have gone through settings, control panel, registry changes, and local policy changes and am unable to figure ot how to fix this issue.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Eric

Windows 10 : Getting autoplay to function

I upgraded to Windows 10.

Autoplay does not seem to work.

I right-click the CD DRIVE in the file explorer and choose "Open Autoplay ...". It then shows a dialogue in the top right corner.

But when I insert a CD, the notification icon in the system tray toggles as expected. Then I click it. I see in the list an entry for Autoplay. So I click it. The notification vanishes.

I should be setting the Autoplay dialogue when I put the CD in. But it refuses. For two days.

How do I fix this?

Thanks.

Not sure, what you have tried, so I will put a link to a guide and some reg settings, run CMD as admin and copy/paste:

reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer" /v "NoDriveTypeAutorun" /t REG_DWORD /d "0x95" /f
reg add "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer" /v "NoDriveTypeAutorun" /t REG_DWORD /d "0x95" /f

AutoPlay - Turn On or Off in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums

 

I have done this - do I need to reboot the system?

 

Yes, reg settings will take effect after restart.

 

I have done this and rebooted but no change - still no options to autorun program
