? about default for USB drive

[Guest]

Hi!

When the power goes out or when I have to move my laptop and it's USB
external hard drive from one power outlet to another in the same room, I
first get an "autoplay" window that I don't get on normral startup with the
external drive already plugged in and when I hit "cancel," I get "The disc or
drive contains more than one type of content. What do you want windows to
do?"

How do I get Windows to default to "Take no action"?

Thanx in advance

Right click on your external drive then go to properties then autoplay then
click select a action to perform then highlight take no action then click ok.
