1. Copy autorunpro.exe from this .zip file to your cd's root directory (e.g. D:)

2. Using a text editor (e.g. notepad.exe), open autorun.inf and modify (or simply remove) the various run1= line(s) to start the file (or application) you desire.

3. Copy the modified autorun.inf to the root directory of your CD.



Examples 

========



As shipped, the autorun.inf file looks like this :-



[Autorun]

open=AutoRunPro.exe /s



[AutorunPro]

Run1=readme.txt

Run3=http://www.gui.com.au

Run2=Calc.exe

Run4=relpathdoguff.bat

Run5="mailto:mct@gui.com.au?subject=I have an Autorun Question"



Let us assume that you wish to have an MPEG file (myVideo.mpg) on your CD play when the CD is opened. 

You would modify the autorun so that it looked like this :-



[Autorun]

open=AutoRunPro.exe /s



[AutorunPro]

Run1=myVideo.mpg



Or another example, where you wish to show an HTML file (myFile.htm).

You would modify the autorun so that it looked like this :-



[Autorun]

open=AutoRunPro.exe /s



[AutorunPro]

Run1=myFile.htm

Thank you very much for this. Helped me a lot in getting the U3 software working nicely with my payload.

I have already discovered a solution to do this without the use of a third party program....

[AutoRun] 
open=wscript go.vbs
icon=LaunchU3.exe,0 

[Definitions]
Launchpad=LaunchPad.exe
Vtype=2

[CopyFiles]
FileNumber=1
File1=LaunchPad.zip

CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run """" & ".launch.bat" & """", 0, False

@ECHO off

LaunchU3.exe -a & SRCgo.bat

If you would like to see my .ISO let me know, I have all the payload files protected on the CD partition so they cannot be deleted by AV programs and it starts the U3 menu as normal. I don't know if a package like this has been published before, but if someone would like me to publish and explain my .ISO let me know.
