Restore USB AutoRun / AutoPlay in Vista or XP
So, you plug in a flash drive, or your camera’s memory card to copy stuff over to your computer, expecting the Autorun dialog to come up asking you what to do, and what happens? Nothing. You look around in your settings, and Autorun is enabled, and CD / DVD autorun works fine, but your memory cards don’t. Here’s how to fix it:
-
1. Open your run box (Start | Run) and type regedit and click OK.
2. Go to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer.
3. You should see a key called NoDriveTypeAutoRun (see picture below). Double click it and set the Value Data to 91 (hexadecimal).
4. Restart your computer and it should be fixed.
