Autorun.exe is the runtime engine that is actually executed. The information about the specifics of your project are located in the autorun.apm. This includes action scripts, Objects, and the general layout of your project. The files that are used in the project (images, music, embedded videos...) are renamed and located in the DATA folder.

I hope that this answers your question.

Just a follow up the autorun.exe is launched by the autorun.inf file which windows looks for whenever a CD is inserted into the drive. You can take a look at the autorun.inf file using a text editor.
