Autorun

[JXBURNS]

Unless I have misunderstood something, should not the AUTORUN.INF be missing when I have published a project after removing the tick from the "Enable AutoPlay Feature" checkbox?

This is publishing to a hard disk drive where it appears that this option has no effect?

I just tested this procedure in build 0.5.5.0 and I didn't find any problems. If you have performed a build to the output directory before including the .inf file, it will not remove the file if you agree to the warning about the directory not being empty.

That .inf file was probably remnants of a previous build. Please verify this by removing the build contents before building again.

No, this is being built to a new directory everytime. It creates the AUTORUN.INF regardless. If I renamed the AUTORUN.EXE to something else the INF file still relates to AUTORUN.EXE.

Are you using 0.5.5.0?

[JXBURNS]

I am (actually the one that Brett just sent me for speed testing which also exhibits same problems):

HOWEVER, I think this is how to replicate.

a) Create project etc.
b) Publish to a new directory with AUTORUN turned ON.
c) Creates the AUTORUN.INF

Now:
a) Create project etc.
b) Publish to a new directory with AUTORUN turned OFF.
c) Still creates the AUTORUN.INF

BUT:
a) RestartStart AMS.
a) Create project etc.
b) Publish to a new directory with AUTORUN turned off.
c) This time does not create the INF file.

That is, it will create if, during the same session, the system has been asked to publish with AUTORUN on regardless of the state of the flag now.

OK, I was finally able to replicate it and will submit a report to our developers. Thank you for the information.
