    Win 7 Home Premium and AUTOPLAY on USB drives will not STOP "Starting"


    In the last couple of days, my Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium has gone APE in starting the AUTOPLAY on all my USB drives, over and over and over, about every, 5-10 sec and it never STOPS.

    The web says this maybe a virus re-starting a malware program.

    The web and Windoes Fourm says to turn off autoplay/autorun for exterinal drives you need to do so in the LOCAL GROUP POLICY OR mmc or "gpedit" tool BUT, HOME PREMIUM DOES NOT HAVE ONE, I cant find one, and Microsoft says it does not have one either..

    In the last 45 secs, my 3 USB drives has repeated the AUTOPLAY twice already. When one stops, it starts another for each drive.

    None of the drives have a AUTORUN.INF file or folder

    Malwarebyte does not find malware or a virus on my system but I can not find how to turn this damn thing off.
    I have already looke on the disc for an AUTO
    ANY ONE know how to turn this AUTOPLAY off?

    Jagman mate try this Kaspersky Rescue Disk 10 you need to make a bootable disk then set the BIOS to optical drive 1st boot device boot or USB (probably not a good idea here) and let the program run.

    It scans for malware everywhere and without Windows having to boot up.

    Try a clean startup - Troubleshoot Application Conflicts by Performing a Clean Startup

    Also try disabling Explorer hooks - get CCleaner - Tools - Startup - Context Menu: Save to text file (or screenshot) to know which ones are enabled/disabled. Then disable them.

MS thinks that one of my PCs is running W7 that's not genuine. It is genuine - at least I bought it from Amazon and paid £141 for it so that - to me - means it's genuine. It may not be but neither Amazon nor MS will take any responsibility for it not being genuine so I've given up with them both. I...
