can't help on the autoplay
--------------------
in regards to the open with listing
it is no longer a single registry
key having a listing of open-with
programs, although when one
right clicks on a file a listing
does appear.
instead the listing fluctuates
depending on the file extension.
you can see the registry
keys for the extensions
and their open-with sub keys
via regedit branch:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft
\ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Explorer \ FileExts
------------------------
editing the open-with listing
with a utility may be easier:

the above is designed to easily
"clear out" open with associations.
[as you may know by now you
can recreate the open with
association by right clicking
on the file via explorer].
---------
what you can do is to have
both your registry and the utility
opened and pointed to .txt .
also have explorer opened with any
txt file highlighted and view its
open with listing before you
use the utility.
now test the utility on that
one extension.
then examine the change to
txt registry sub key.
then right click on
a txt file to see the
modification to the open
with listing.
[keep in mind that txt
files are generally opened
with notepad.exe].

Where, in the registry, does one find entries for "Open With" right-click
sub-menu options.
Also, where are the entries for "Auto-Play" options when an optical disk
is
inserted ?
Regards and thanks in anticipation.
