Change your cd auto play settings in Windows Vista

By Mitz

Free computer Help

 

A nice feature in Windows Vista is that you can change your cd auto play settings in detail. For example, you can set a program or action to be performed with almost every type of media. So when you insert an audio cd it will automatically begin playing using the program you chose in the settings. Or you might want Windows Media player to automatically rip music form your cd.

 

This feature existed in Windows XP, however not in this much detail. There is even an auto play setting for DVD blue ray disc.

 

To change your cd auto play settings in Windows Vista

  1. Open the Control panel by going to the start menu.

  2. Double click on the Default programs icon.

  3. Now choose the third setting down. Change Auto play settings.
