ImgBurn auto-starts: how to stop?

[tomreedtoon]

ImgBurn is nice for burning disk images, but it isn't the only program I want to use to burn disks. Every time I insert a blank CD or DVD, ImgBurn auto-starts. I don't know how this happens, because I used to get a menu that would let me select Nero or other programs. Now, ImgBurn auto-starts and I have to stop it.

 

I didn't see an "auto start" option in ImgBurn's menus. Is there some way I can disable this auto-start?

 

And yes, I did search through the forums, but didn't see anything about this annoying problem.

Hi and welcome to the forum, tomreedtoon!

 

Main Menu -> Tools -> Settings -> Registry

 

Deselect the options you want in the 'Shell Extensions'.

Or use gpedit.msc and Enable Turn off Autoplay

Just configure autoplay to ask you what to do when you insert a disc or whatever. This is a Windows setting, look in Control Panel.

I've tried the tools, registry options and windows 10 still does not open IMGBURN when I insert a blank media disc... prompts windows media player.

You need to configure Windows 10 itself. ImgBurn only adds itself as an 'option' for these things.
