Microsoft Windows® has an autoplay function that executes predefined actions when an inserted media source is plugged into the computer. For example, if you use the Winamp® application for playing audio tracks and have it set as the default autoplay application, it will automatically launch when an audio CD is inserted into the disc drive. To change the autoplay setting, read the instructions below to learn how to do it.
