757158 2009-03-17 09:10:00 hi all, i burned autorun.inf file and a .exe file in a CD. i used
open = flash.exe

then it is running this .exe file. but if i keep this .exe file in a folder "test" and use the code

open = test\flash.exe

then autorun.inf file is not running the .exe file. Autorun.inf file is on the root. It is very simple thing, but i don't know why is it not working. whereas i m writing right code.
plz help
regards

757159 2009-03-17 09:17:00 What have you got in the autorun.inf file? Paste the entire contents here. :)

It should be:

[autorun]
open=test\flash.exe

Welcome to PressF1 too :)

support.microsoft.com

the basic deal is that autorun can now be turned on/off in a device by device kind of way.
