Automatically Play that CD or DVD on Your PC !



Do you primarily use your media drives to play CDs and DVDs? Do you ever get tired of having Windows ask you what you want to do when you pop in the disc?

You can tell Windows to automatically play that CD or DVD as soon as you put it in the drive! How? By activating Window’s AutoPlay feature. Follow these steps:

  1. Open up My Computer or Windows Explorer

  2. Find the CD or DVD drive that you want to automatically play your CD or DVD

  3. Right-click on the drive and click Properties

  4. Clip the AutoPlay tab at the top

  5. Under Actions, click “Select an action to perform”

  6. Click on the action to perform. If you have multiple media players on your PC, you must choose one.
    Click Apply, and click OK.


If you have two drives, repeat for the other drive.

Now, whenever you put that CD or DVD into the drive, it should automatically begin to play. No more having that little window asking you what you want to do. Cheers!
