Autorun to start with an html page

AndesHelp
9 New Member
I have a very basic CD with a website loaded on it. The autorun.inf file is:

[autorun]
;ShellExecute=h ome.html
icon=logo.ico

However, when the CD is inserted it starts up with a Windows Explorer display instead of the HTML page. What am I missing?

Thanks

After some more searching and reading I found the "AutoRun.in f" file will not run anything but an executable file.

I did find a great little utility called "shellexe.e xe" from Whirly Wiry Web. It works great and is a free utility. Now my CD starts right up with no problems.

Hello Friend!
PLZ save your home page with .HTA extension (ex-Home.hta).

and use this code in your autorun.inf file:-------------------

[autorun]
open=Home.hta
icon= logo.ico


if you get any other solution then Write here.
Thanks

I have a database set up where I want to export the records to a cd. I want to be able to create an autorun cd and have it based on HTML so when it opens, the user can click on various links and it will show them the corresponding record. Any ideas? A template or merge would be great as not all the records from the DB would be going on the CD. TIA,

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
