How do you add "Open Folder To View Files" to the autorun.inf in a USB for XP?

Hello everyone,

Does anyone one know the parameters, arguments, etc. on how to automatically run "Open Folder To View Files" from a usb autorun.inf file?

Here's what I have so far in customizing my autorun.inf:

Code:

 [autorun]
icon=autorun.ico
label=stopads8GB

What do I add to the .inf file to Open Folder To View Files. I've googled this for more that an hour and still can't seem to find a clear cut example. Can some please help? Thank you in advance for your input and responses. :thumbsup:

 

The "Open Folder to View Files" option should be there by default... You shouldn't need to add it for a USB drive.

 

Hi Wyatt,

I know that, but I want to open it automatically without any popup choices. I want it to open directly to my USB drive to view files. If you look at my autorun.inf I just need one last thing to add and that's to open the USB drive directly without popup choices. I believe it might be a script or something.

 

Does this work?

Code:

[autorun]
icon=autorun.ico
label=stopads8GB
open=explorer .

(with the space and period)

 

I'm on Win7 now but I remember I did something like that:

autorun.vbs

Code:

CreateObject("WScript.Shell").Run "explorer /n,/e,.\", 3

autorun.inf

Code:

[autorun]
shellexecute=autorun.vbs
icon=autorun.ico
label=stopads8GB
action=Explorer
useautoplay=1

Didn't work

 

I'm on XP so I tried your autorun.inf. Didn't work either

 

I can't test it anymore but that's what i did on XP (found it on one of my older pen drives).
BTW: It doesn't work without the VBScript!

I placed both the .vbs & .inf in my thumbdrive. Still didn't work.
