How can I Create Autorun DVD?
I want my software to run automatically from a CD/DVD with no user interaction whenever the user puts the CD/DVD into the drive. As far as I know autorun should still work with Windows 7, just not for USB drives.
But how?
Let's say I want to start software.exe, how do I configure autorun.inf ? This, doesn't work.
What is preventing software.exe* from running? How can I run it (automatically)?

Security built into Windows 7 prevents autorun from running.
(The reason why it won't work is becasuse on Windows 7, the only keys available in the [autorun] section of autorun.inf are label and icon (except for on DRIVE_CDROM drives). Any other keys in this section will be ignored. Thus only CD and DVD media types can specify an AutoRun task (or affect double-click and right-click behavior).

There is a patch available, KB971029 for Windows XP and later, that will change AutoRun functionality to this behaviour.)
