Dear All,

Am having an application in USB which should be auto launch when i have inserted the USB device in any system. I have worked with autorun.inf but this auto run is blocked by the antivirus software so can any suggest me how to make it work. Any program to do it or any third party softwares to do so..

Thanks in advance

This is generally not possible.

I, for example, have completely turned autorun off on my computer, since I really don't want anybody to run a program when I insert a DVD or stick in a USB. I usually can figure out myself what to click, thanks.

There may be a group of users who actively want to have a program run automatically when they stick a USB in. However, they are probably a minority. You need to provide means for the rest of users, who do not want to allow this, to use your application in a different way.

Thanks martin , But how about any third party tools which can run the application as a virtual app..
