The Autorun-check.exe program has been designed to allow you to check and/or alter the autorun settings on your Windows system. On Windows 95/98/ME, you can change the settings for the CD ROM drives using the control panel. This is no longer possible for Windows 2000 and above. Autorun-check.exe works by displaying the current settings for all Windows systems and offers you the opportunity to make changes or to reset the default settings.
