Is this on XP? That's the AutoPlay feature. You can go to the drive's properties in Explorer and turn AutoPlay off.

Yeah, it runs on XP. I've opened USB drive property and didn't find way to turn off autoplay. There are program options for different data stored in the USB drive. For example, if there is music stored in the USB drive, I can either pick windows media to play it or do nothing. I set all listed item with "No AutoPlay". But the USB drive folder opens up each time the USB drive is plugged into the PC. The USB drive I'm using will only store files. I need windows to assign drive letter for it , but not to open the folder for that drive. Please advise further Thanks Vicky

Drive's properties has AutoPlay tag where listed content types of music, video, picture, and the mixed. I seleted "Take No Action" for all of them and retried the USB drive. But each time when the USB drive is plugged into the PC, the folder automaticly is opened up.:confused:
