Creating a simple or complex autorun file for your thumbdrive.
You can also follow these instructions when making a CD. You just have to burn it on the cd.
When you plug a USB drive in, you might be interested in making a program, or other things happen as soon as you plug in. The way you accomplish this is through the Autorun.inf file. The autorun.inf file is located in the root of the usb drive and tells Windows what to do automatically.
This autorun can be used to make good, or bad USB’s depending on what you like.
This tutorial covers:
