    How to disable auto eject when no CD found in explorer?


    In explorer, if you click your DVD drive and there's no cd in it, it gives you some "insert a disc" message and auto ejects.

    I find that extremely annoying because I will sometimes misclick the DVD drive and it pops up when I don't want it to. I'm not dumb enough to willingly click on an empty DVD drive, I will open it up myself before doing that.

    How do I disable autoeject?

    I think I might have a registry script. I know there is one for hiding the CD -ROM drive, but I;m not sure about ejecting

    Give me a moment

    Sorry,. this is all I found:
    NoAddFromCDorFloppy - Hide "Add a program from CD-ROM or disk" option

Not sure if "focus" is the right term here, but anyway. I use "list" view almost exclusively so this may not be an issue with other views.
