Hi Kurtis, Yes, I have, many times! LOL LOL
Each time I've made changes in the drives properties I've rebooted. Thanks much. Take care.

Also, all 3 of the drives can be accessed through My Computer but, just not getting the window opening after the device connect sound. Thanks much. Take care.

David, when I highlight the drive in My Computer & open the context menu, there is not an auto play option, just an, open option. Trish, when I plug-in / start any of the 3 drives I'm not getting any windows opening & that's what I'm asking. Why are there not any windows opening when I plug-in / start any of the 3 drives? Here are my settings in all 3 drives in, Properties/ Auto Play: 1. Select an action to perform: Checkbox is checked. Music files: Take no action is checked. Pictures: Take no action is checked. Video Files: Take no action is checked. Mixed Content: Open folder to view files using Windows Explorer. I've also tried: Checking the checkbox for, Prompt me each time to choose an action. Using these settings: Music files: Open folder to view files using Windows Explorer. Pictures: Open folder to view files using Windows Explorer. Video Files: Open folder to view files using Windows Explorer. Mixed Content: Open folder to view files using Windows Explorer. Every time I make a settings change,I am applying it before moving on to the next setting & when I'm done with all the settings changes, I then press enter on Okay to save the changes & close the properties. Anfd, I still don't get any Windows opening! I used to get an auto play window opening whenever I plugged in / started any of the 3 drives but, not with any of them any more. Is it possible that a service has been inadvertently turned off? Thanks much. Take care.

I have my external drives to open folders to view files using Windows Explorer but, they're not doing so. I used to get a cancel button in Windows Explorer once the drive was opened but, this isn't happening anymore. The only way I know if the drive is accessible is by going to My Computer to see if the drive is showing in the list. Can someone tell me what to do so I can get my external drives to open in Windows Explorer again? Is there a service that might have been turned off by chance? All help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks much. Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iBarstool.
