Problem autoplay not working on portable hard drive

yeah it sure can be.the when you choose to reset it will give you a list of apps that will need a reinstall.good luck with it.

 

This should work if you follow all of these step however you probably only need to regedit but here it is. You'll need to use the Run command, this works on most of the current versions of Windows.

Code:

gpedit.msc
  User Configuration
    Administrative Templates
      Windows Components
        AutoPlay Policies
           Turn Off Autoplay
              Enabled
                Options:
                   All drives (drop down)
           Don't set the always do this checkbox
              Enabled
                OK
           Turn off Autoplay for non-volume devices
              Enabled
                OK
           Default behavior for AutoRun
              Enabled
                OK

services.msc
  Shell Hardware Detection
    Startup type: Automatic (drop down)
    Service status: Started
      OK

regedit
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
    SYSTEM
      CurrentControlSet
        services
          cdrom
            AutoRun (REG_DWORD)
              1 (Hexadecimal)
                OK
    SOFTWARE
      Microsoft
        Windows
          CurrentVersion
            Policies
              Explorer
                NoDriveTypeAutoRun (REG_DWORD)
                  91 (Hexadecimal)
                    OK

Hope it isn't too much I think I have everything correctly laid out.
