I'm running Windows 7 32-bit.
I am unable to use any of the Autoplay features. I plug in a USB drive, pop in a CD, or connect a camera, and I get no reaction.
I need to restore the Autoplay function. How can I do this?

Adjust as required.

You can also get to this quickly from the start menu by typing 'autoplay' into the search box. – Jimmy – 2010-12-22T01:56:52.783

1Answers with just a link are generally frowned upon. It can result in an accepted answer just having a dead link. Copy and paste the info in or put it in your own words. I imagine that's why you're getting downvotes – Joe Taylor – 2010-12-20T10:46:05.280
Thanks for the edit @Weltenwanderer! I'd suggest trying to give a little more background information or tutorial-like descriptions in your answers though. Your edit here is a great example of what a good answer should look like :-) – Ivo Flipse – 2010-12-20T11:29:44.217

Step One here:
- Ensure that AutoPlay is used for all media type and devices
Go to Control Panel -> Programs -> Default Programs, and select Change AutoPlay settings, or Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> AutoPlay.
AutoPlay Settings
Ensure that the check box for Use AutoPlay for all media and devices is ticked (enabled).
Enable and Turn On AutoPlay
Then, make sure that for the devices and media that you want AutoPlay dialog to prompt, Ask me every time is selected. If other option is selected, Windows will automatically performing the action without prompting for selection.
Alternatively, just click on Reset all defaults to reset and return AutoPlay settings to its original factory defaults.

Copy and paste this to notepad and save as whateveryouwant.bat
This will only work if you run it as admin (the reason you need to run as admin is because this will edit the registry).
After you run this as admin, restart your computer and autorun should be enabled.
@echo off set key="HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer"
reg add %key% /v NoDriveTypeAutoRun /t REG_DWORD /d 145
