I type this from within WinXP myself, and just tried your scenario, it acts as I said earlier, it moved focus down 1, in my case Z: is my dvd drive, and when I eject the DVD, it moved down to control panel. So Autoplay is 'at play' here again. Same for a flash mem reader at B:, moved down 1 to C:.
PS: I obviously have autoplay turned off in WinXP as well!! via tweakui. I ASSume that is why it acts that way and why I want Win7 to act the same way.
Sometimes changes are great, but often times changes almost seem arbitrary especially dealing with M$! Many changes in Win7 ARE nice IMOH, I am not a luddite, just know how I like some things, Autoplay being VERY annoying to me. "where is that voice control for a pc - Watson in a chip!" That would be change I would completely love!
Whoever redesigned WE behavior did change things, just NOT completely to my liking in this case, whereas copying and deleting files are MUCH better in Win7!
So you see a diff behavior in WinXP, and it simply MUST be Autoplay behavior in Win7 (original complaint), and the 'lack' of altering its behavior to my setting Autoplay completely 'off' unlike in WinXP which responds to my liking.
So, I must contend with this 'you are not in control, M$ is' behavior which really has increased in Win7 (probably Vista but I essentially skipped that one) maybe for the better but maybe not .........
Thanks!
So, once again "Is there a registry setting fix for this, anyone??"
