How do I restore autoplay?

[Steve Turner]

Whenever I put a CD or DVD into my DVD drive it no longer presents me with a
list of options or automatically plays the disk. I have gone into properties
for the drive and autoplay is enabled. Yet it still doesn't autoplay. How
can I fix this? Thanks ahead of time.

Hi,

Check your settings in the Control Panel under Autoplay. The drive may be
enabled, but your settings may be set to "take no action".

I reviewed the other posters response as well as yours. I reset all my
defaults to "ask me every time". I don't have Roxio. Never did. But I
noticed that it happened after I removed my trial version of Norton
Security. It came packaged with the computer and I just let it install, but
when the trial ran out I wanted to delete it so I used their tool. Let's see
if your suggestions fixes this for me. Stay tuned. \
