    I would like to turn off autorun for my external drives. I can turn it off (in drive properties) once the drive is plugged in, but whenever I plug it in again or plug in another drive Windows returns to its apparent default of autorun. Since I have several rather large external drives, this is a nuisance.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks,

    Joe

    Tweak UI should be able to do it for you (screenshot).
