Disable autorun?

I have built the exe file of my project.
Every time I open it, application autoruns itself. I do not want it, I need to do some settings in front panel before running the application.
In File/VI Properties/Execution, the Run when opened is not checked.
How can I disable autorun?

I think that the AB overrides the settings for VIs marked as "Top Level": they open and run when the app is launched. Modify your Top Level VI so that it does not enter the main code until the user press a button after the settings are done.

  • Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Master Collection disables autorun during installation

    This is on a completely fresh installation of windows 7 x64.
    Before installing Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Master Collection x64 autoplay for my camera works, after installation it does not work.  If I uninstall it, it works again.
    Where is this program disabling autorun for devices.  Autorun for flash drives works fine, its just the non-volume devices that are affected.
    I tried using gpedit and reg keys to re-enable autoplay for the camera but it does not work.
    When I plug my camera in, I can still go to my computer I can get my pics without any issues, its just that this is bugging me.
    Don't think there is an answer out there, guess I just need to not be so OCD with this stuff.
    Thanks for reading!

    From what I can tell, the problem is very much related to the way the 32-bit applications of Bridge, Premier and Elements interact with the 64-bit OS when it comes to autoplaying.  Looking at event viewer logs and what not shows that the autoplay process effectively crashes or locks up when it attempts to initialize with the Adobe applications in the list.
    Anyway, without futher ado, the steps to "correct" the problem.
    NOTE: This will remove the autoplay functionality for Bridge, Premier, or Elements (which didn't work with non-volume devices in x64 anyway).  Also, this requires going into the Windows registry to fix.  If you are not comfortable doing so, then find a techy friend to assist you.
    1.) Open Registry Editor
    2.) Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Explorer \ AutoplayHandlers \ EventHandlers \
    3.) Right click on EventHandlers, select export, choose a location, and name and save the file.  This will save a backup of the registry keys/values you will be deleting should you want to restore them later.
    4.) You'll have to go key by key, but you'll want to look for values that contain "Bridge", "Premier", or "Elements" (or other Adobe Products) and remove them.
    5.) Now, navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Explorer \ AutoplayHandlers \ Handlers \
    3.) Right click on Handlers, select export, choose a location, and name and save the file.  This will save a backup of the registry keys/values you will be deleting should you want to restore them later.
    6.) This time you will be deleting any keys (they look like folders) that contain "Bridge", "Premier", or "Elements" (or other Adobe Products) and remove them.
    7.) Close the Registry Editor and reboot.
    You should now find that your Autoplay functions work perfectly with non-volume devices again.
    Hope this helps you all.

  • Disabling Autorun so I can burn from ITunes.

    When I put a blank CD in my drive it automatically puts an "autorun" file on it. When I try to burn from ITunes it either says the drive is in use by another application or it says the cd is not blank. It has something to do with Roxio since the tab of the file often says Roxio. I have uninstalled Roxio from my computer, I have deleted all files with the word Roxio or autorun in its name and it doesn't solve the problem. I also have made ITunes my default media player. So what should I do now?

    I am not sure about this, and I don't want to worry you, but there is an autorun worm that spreads via autoruns on removable media.
    I think up to date security software should detect and remove it, so is your security software up to date?
    It might be worth running a full scan with the free version of Malwarebytes:
    http://www.malwarebytes.org/
    Something else you could do is to open one of these autorun files with notepad and have a look. I don't know what the autorun puts in the file, but you might see something that looks odd.
    You could also look to see if the CD contains any hidden files.
    There is a Microsoft article on disabling autorun, but that stops it being executed rather than stopping the file being created.

  • Skype 7.6 disabling autorun startup without signing in

    With the new 7.6 skype you cannot disable autorun from the install options, you cannot disable autorun from msconfig, you cannot disable autorun unless you log in and disable. As a technician I install Skype on every machine I format, but I have it disabled to keep startup times slow. So now, it's either adding back the feature to disable autorun in the installer, or me not installing it altogether anymore, unless there's a way to disable it that I missed, that *does not involve signing in*.

    Please,  run the DirectX diagnostics tool. Go to Windows Start  and in the Run box type dxdiag.exe and press the OK button. This will start the DirectX diagnostics program. Run this diagnostics and save the results to a file. Please, attach this file to your post. Be aware that you will have to zip this file before attaching it here.

  • How to disable autorun for usb ?

    hi,
    any body please tell me how to disable auto run for usb as we connect it.

    Hi,
    I am writing to add a note to help anyone trying to do this.
    I had been searching for help on this for hours and the Microsoft KB you referenced only gets you part way to the solution.
    The problem on my T60 was the Group Policy Editor /Admin Templates did not show the System so I  could not get to the "Turn off Autorun" item as referenced in the KB. I could not find the soulution anywhere on Microsoft or other help forums.
    Good News!  Here on the T400 forum this question was answered in 2008. The solution works great. My thanks to the contributor of the answer. Here is the text of the answer: I guess it would apply to any Thinkpad and others as well.

    Hi tdushane,
     I had this same issue on my XP SP3 machine. This is how I resolved the issue:
    1. Go to start run and type in gpedit.msc
    2. Under computer configuration right click on the administrative templates
    3. Click on add/remove templates
    4. Click the add button
    5. In the folder look for system.adm and double click on it
    6. Verify that system is listed then click close.
    Now you will see all the missing folders.
    Hope this helps!

  • Disable autorun feature on labview executables **has not been solved**

    Trying to disable the feature that starts your labview executable automatically when opened. I know that I could create a start button and all that jazz, but I would prefer to disable this feature if possible.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You can't disable that "feature" because that's not how applications work. An application will run as soon as it's opened. Does your web browser wait for you to press start before it starts running? That's how it works. If you don't want the VI to start its work as soon as you launch the application then you need to put it in an "idle" state as soon as it runs and it will stay there until the user presses a "start" button. I would suggest looking into a state machine design. http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/3024

  • How disable the access and charged for Cellphones by USB

    I tried to disable access to storage USB devices to computers on Windows 7, I changed the key USBSTOR record the value of 4, and works well for flash drives, but when I connect my cell phone via USB is loaded as a portable disk which causes users of the

  • Autorun on Macs from CD-Rom and Hybrid question

    Hello all,
    I just got comissioned to design and develop a small
    flash-based CD-Rom project. The client is interested in having the
    CD-Rom presentation auto start/run when placed in the cd-rom drive.
    I know how to do this for a pc, but how would I accomplish this for
    a mac?
    1) Is it possible to do? I thought I read somewhere that Max
    OS X disabled autorun for CD's.
    2) Are there differences (if it can be done) between PowerPC
    Macs and Intel-based Macs?
    3) If I publish a swf file (and burn) it from a PowerPC base
    mac running OS X will it work on an Intel based one?
    Thanks in advance for any help and/or direction.
    - Mr. Moo

    It's been a while since we did a cross-platform autorun (it
    was right about the time that OsX first released).
    If I remember correctly we used NorthCode's SWF Studio for
    the PC side, and a seperate Flash Projector for the Mac side.
    We had to write a small piece of applescript to perform
    essentially the same function that the autorun.inf file on Windows
    handles.
    The autorun function was dependant on the user having
    Quicktime and recent carbonlib installed.
    We used a product called MacImage to build hybrid mac/iso
    cd-images that could then be burned from Windows PC.
    Sorry I can't give any more up-to-date specifics, but maybe
    some of that will be mildly helpful.

  • Reader 5 Autorun keeps trying to load 5.0 at logon

    Everytime any user logs on, Adobe Reader 5 autorun starts running Setup for it. I even downloaded the darn thing to try to disable autorun, but it still autoruns to setup Reader 5 - then you have to wait until you get to CANCEL screen to get out. Probably an easy fix, but is beyond my miniscule computer ability.

    My OS is Windows XP. I have tried to fix it in my Start-up program, but maybe I am just not getting to the right spot to do this.

  • Things and Software to avoid when authoring for DVD-V

    This one is always in the earlier, 1.X FAQ, but is so important it should be repeated here too.
    There have been so many posts along the line of "I cannot burn my DVD in Encore, but Nero works well" that I thought I should share this info with you all.
    As we know, DVD Authoring is very dependant on timing, and on not having other apps getting in the way & locking up the burners, So here is a list of software that is known to interfere with GEAR drivers. It is a raging cert that this also applies here, as all authoring apps are the same sort of thing.
    These 3rd party apps are junk software, to be quite blunt (I expect to get flamed over this, but I cannot help the truth), and should never be installed on an Authoring system.
    Anyway, here is the current list of 
    i known problem software.
    1. B's Clip: This package will load a packet-writing software that will constantly talk to your CD/DVD writer, and can cause a number of issues while trying to write a disc. Disabling this software is not enough, as a portion of this package is always running after you start windows. You will need to uninstall it in Add/Remove programs, then reboot to remove it. For more information, visit the B's website at http://www.bhacorp.com.
    2. Direct CD or Drag to Disk: These are applications from Easy CD Creator from Roxio. This package will load a packet-writing software that will constantly talk to your CD/DVD writer, and can cause a number of issues while trying to write a disc. Disabling this software is not enough, as a portion of this package is always running after you start windows. To remove them you need to do to Add or Remove Programs in the Control Panel. There you can select Easy CD Creator to change, not remove. Then you must click next until it gives you the option to modify. Then either Direct CD or Drag to Disk should be selected and changed to "make this option not available". Then click next and while the program may look like it is installing, it is removing those options. One thing to remember is that both Direct CD and Drag to Disk will not be installed at the same time. For more information, please visit Roxio's website at http://www.roxio.com/en/support.index.jhtml
    3. GoBack: backup software that constantly runs in the background (Terminate and Stay Ready) this needs not only to be turned off, but disabled. Unfortunately, this may cause some restore points to vanish, but it will free up a lot of hard drive space. For more information visit Symantec's web site for GoBack at http://www.symantec.com/goback/index.html 
    4. DLA: Also HP-DLA, Veritas DLA, and others. DLA stands for Disk Letter Assignment. This package will load a packet-writing software that will constantly talk to your CD/DVD writer, and can cause a number of issues while trying to write a disc. Disabling this software is not enough, as a portion of this package is always running after you start windows. You will need to uninstall it in Add/Remove programs, then reboot to remove it.
    5. InCD: This is packet writing software that comes bundled with Ahead Nero Burning Rom. This package will load a packet-writing software that will constantly talk to your CD/DVD writer, and can cause a number of issues while trying to write a disc. Disabling this software is not enough, as a portion of this package is always running after you start windows. You will need to uninstall it in Add/Remove programs, then reboot to remove it. For more information go to Nero's website at http://www.nero.com/en/
    6. Interactual Player and PC Friendly Player: These programs are DVD software viewers that often come on DVD movie discs, and will try to install themselves everytime you watch a movie on your computer. Please make sure to NOT let these install. Both programs interfere with all DVD Authoring software and should be un-installed from Add or Remove programs in control panel when found. In some cases, you will need to uninstall and reinstall your software to restore functionality after removing one of these. For more information about both players, visit http://player.interactual.com/ 
    7. McAfee Anti-Virus: This is anti-virus software that when running, can cause errors. It needs to be disabled by right clicking on the icon in the lower right side of the task bar. Your DVD Authoring software then needs to be restarted. Whenever you are using your software, McAfee needs to be disabled to ensure unrestricted access to your drive. For more info go to McAfee's website at http://us.mcafee.com/default.asp 
    8. Norton Anti-Virus: This is anti-virus software that when running, can cause errors. It needs to be disabled by right clicking on the icon in the lower right side of the task bar and the automatic updates should be disabled. Your DVD software then needs to be restarted. Whenever you are using your software, Norton needs to be disabled to ensure unrestricted access to your drive. The Norton Website is http://www.symantec.com/ 
    9. StopZilla: StopZilla can hinder required portions of various installers, causing the software to fail. Please completely disable StopZilla, then install your software. Once our software is installed, you may safely enable it again. If you have any difficulty using your software at a later time, you may need to disable StopZilla before going to use your software. Uninstallation is not required. 
    10. MyStorageGuard: This backup software can hinder certain required files from being copied during the installation. Please disable this program before installing , and have it disabled any time you go to use your DVD Authoring software. Uninstallation is not required. 
    11. Napster 2.0: This software includes some basic burning software that can cause burning problems if it is running. You will need to close this program completely before trying to use DVD Authoring software. In some rare cases, you will need to completely uninstall this package to attain full reliability, so if disabling does not solve your issue, please try uninstalling this software, and try again. 
    12. Easy CD Creator 4.x: Due to the age of this package, it is no longer updated by the authors. There are bugs present in this older system that will cause NUMEROUS problems on your machine. Please Uninstall completely, and consider either the new 6.x version from Roxio ( http://www.roxio.com ) or Nero 6.x ( http://www.nero.com ). These packages, installed without the Packet Writing software (DirectCD/Drag to Disk/InCD), all work very well with DVD Authoring software. 
    13. Spyware and Adware - some programs can install other software that can be damaging to your Operating System. Please scan for these programs with a Spyware utility. We recommend Ad-Aware, available freely at http://www.lavasoftusa.com 
    14. Disable the Windows XP packet writing utility. To do so, go to My Computer, Right click oon your DVD burner, choose Properties. Find the "Recording" tab. Uncheck "Enable CD recording on this drive" While you are there, switch off all AutoRun options too. It means going through each option and then selecting "Take No Action" as the default option. AutoRun will "poll" the drive every few minutes to look for a new disc, and if it finds one it will try to open it. 
    15. Symantec PCAnywhere has been reported to cause problems with Encore as the awvid5.dll file it installs is a video driver designed to facilitate the transfer of screen information from one computer to another. Sadly, this causes a conflict which can cause XP to restart - or give a bluescreen if the "Automatically restart" option has been unticked, giving a PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA stop condition.
    Another crash can be reproduced by
    a) Open a project
    b) Add an MPEG file and associated WAV file as assets
    c) Link the MPEG file to a menu button by dragging
    d) Encore creates a Timeline for the MPEG file automatically
    e) Open the new Timeline
    f) Drag the MPEG's WAV file into the timeline's audio track
    g) Close the Timeline
    h) Repeat (b)-(d)
    i) When the new Timeline is double-clicked, XP restarts
    The 
    i only
    solution found so far is to uninstall PCAnywhere, then all returns to normal.
    16. It has also been found that either Efax or Winfax software installed to the system can cause the dreaded "Visual C++ Runtime Error" which will crash Encore. Microsoft support have confirmed that if you see this error, you need a hotfix KB884538, from www.microsoft.com in the support area.
    Install the hotfix, and if the error remains, check for either of these fax programs. If either are present, remove them, reboot and all should now work.
    17. Roxio Easy CD Creator - General issues.
    Firstly, when uninstalling any Roxio application it is best to do this from the "Add Remove Programs" applet in Control Panel, as usual. However - this will NOT remove all Roxio's tentacles from your system. To be sure all is definitely removed, you need to visit 
    http://www.microadvantage.net/downloads/zapper60.zip
    and run this. When you are done, you can then reboot and the evil Roxio will finally be gone.
    Another common issue with Roxio is when Nero also co-exists on the same system. The two 
    i loathe
    each other and are apparently incapable of co-existing.
    If you have noth these installed there is an additional set of stuff to go through. Remove Roxio first, then reboot, then remove Nero completely beginning by uninstalling from "Add Remove Programs" and then we also need to get rid of all the various tendrils it has also addeed to the system using the following tools:
    (You must use all 3 of Nero's Clean tools in order to do the job correctly.)
    They can all be found here:
    http://www.nero.com/us/631940828445001.htm
    1. General Clean tool
    2. Registry cleaner and driver cleaner
    3. InCD Clean tool
    When you reinstall Nero 6.6 OR Neros new 7 Ultra Edition, DO NOT install InCD OR if you do, turn it off in startup under msconfig (better to not install it) 
    18 - FindSounds Palette 
    This is a tool designed to help you find SFX on your drives, and it seems to prevent Encore from importing M2V files for some reason, and should be uninstalled if present.
    To uninstall this, do the following steps:
    Uninstall "Find Sounds Palette" (FS Palette).
    Delete the two registry key folders for "Comparisonics".
    Uninstall Encore CS3.
    Delete Registry Keys for Encore.
    Restart.
    Install Encore CS3.
    Install Encore 3.0.1 update.
    Restart.
    19 - Quicken
    It has been reported that if you back up your Quicken files to CD, then Quicken sets up your DVD burner for CD DLA through the built-in Windows burning facility.  This assignment recurs each time your system is restarted.  When this happens, Encore will see your burner as a CD burner only.  You'll have to manually disable this start-up assignment to get Encore to see your burner as a DVD burner again.
    Additionally, it is a good idea to disable Autorun for your burner, preferably from the registry. While this will not prevent anything polling the drive from the OS to try & "helpfully" check for freshly inserted media, it will prevent sneaky DRM applications from installing themselves to your system just by having the disc inserted. As well as the registry hack required, there are other methods of stopping this described at
    http://www.annoyances.org/exec/show/article03-018
    To do the registry hack, perform the following:
    * Run the Registry Editor (REGEDIT.EXE).
    * Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Cdrom.
    * Double-click the Autorun value, and type 0 for its value. (If it's not there, create it by selecting Edit -> New -> DWORD Value, and typing "Autorun" for its name.)
    * You may have to log out and then log back in for this change to take effect.
    * Note: With this solution, Windows will no longer be notified when you insert a new CD. To make sure the correct icon and title for the current CD are displayed in My Computer and Explorer, press F5 to refresh the window. 
    If you perform any of these changes, you may need to uninstall your software, then re-install to fix any damage left. If you find some of these packages, please shut down and reboot twice to ensure that the last pieces of the conflicting software are completely removed.

    You're lucky then Steve.
    Roxio is one of those apps that usually doesn't play nice with any other burning software at all.
    I use GEAR Pro Mastering Edition.
    They also do a cheaper version called GEAR Video - but be aware that this installs DivX as well - although I have to say that on one of our systems running Adobe 1.5 versions of Encore & Premiere Pro, it is causing no conflicts at all. But there have definitely been major problems with DivX codecs and EncoreDVD. Perhaps it is to do with where they come from, perhaps I just got lucky in this case.
    It might be worth a trial version though - although if you have the budget, and do a LOT of DVD, then GEAR Pro Mastering Edition is an invaluable tool I have found.

  • Can't rename a Canvio 2TB USB 3.0 drive

    Hi, I've just got 2 Canvio 2TB USB 3.0 drives but couldn't rename either drive in Windows 7's explorer nor Mac OS X's Finder (with the Mac NTFS driver installed). Tho the new name is shown from the drive's "properties" but the name appear in Explorer is still the default "Toshiba Canvio Hard Drive". This is inconvient when I have 2 drives mounted but can't tell which one is which.

    I always wipe new external drives clean.
    If you have an autorun.inf file in the root, then ljaygould is probably right. It's this line that needs to change.

  • ITunes stops downloading due to other windows

    iTunes stops importing the minute I open another program and that program's window is on top of iTunes. Any ideas how to prevent this?
    Thanks in advance.
    David

    I just upgraded to the latest iTunes and am having the same problem. My guess is that because I disabled autorun on my CD ROM iTunes checks the CD drive each time iTunes looses and gains focus.
    In previous versions it did this gracefully while importing CDs. It just looks like some developers should have been given more time and/or coffee. I'm sure there will be an update soon, but until then iTunes will be a bummer to work with. (Especially considering I just bought my wife a new nano video and we want to rip her CD collection into iTunes... oh well.)
    iTunes used to offer to re-enable auto-run, but with companies like Sony out there who are willing to use autorun on audio CDs to install rootkits, I don't trust autorun anymore. (Plus I love having that extra control over what happens on my computer.)
    Here's hoping it gets fixed soon! Any other tips someone has on this issue would be greatly appreciated!
    Edit: ejecting an iPod also stopps the CD importing process and removes the CD from the "devices" menu on the left. (but does not eject the CD) weird.
