    Program Opening up Unexpectedly


    I have a program, Ashampoo Burning Studio 22 which is very good but recently has been opening up everytime I connect an external drive thinking that I want to do a backup. I can quite easilly cancel this and proceed to do what I want to do which is to copy a number of my CD/DVD's to an external HDD. Because I am doing this to a large quantity of discs it is very tedious to have cancel the Ashampoo program every time. I can find no setting in the progrm to disable this automatic function. Can anyone suggest a way round this unnecessary program activity?
    I am running W10 version 22H2 with the latest updates

    Suggest you examine your Autoplay settings.

    It's probably set to run when you insert a disk.

    Hello @A Gray,

    Have a look in these Devices > AutoPlay:

    Thanks for your replies. I have now found the relevant section in Settings and fixed the problem. I don't know how I didn't find it myself, anyway all is ok now.
