Auto Launch Project Published to CD Apr 09, 2014 By MaShonda Wilson-Johnson I've published a project to CD, however when I burn the files to the CD, the CD does not auto launch when inserted in the CD player. The autorun file created during publishing to CD contains the following lines: [autorun] open="Launch_Story.exe" icon="Launch_Story.exe" Why doesn't my CD autolaunch?

Dennis offers some troubleshooting tips in this thread, and Christine includes some ideas in this thread (similar just written differently).

MaShonda Wilson-Johnson Author 10 years ago04/14/14 at 7:28 am (UTC) Phil, I've tried it on my personal laptop and still no luck on the auto-play.
Phil Mayor Hero 10 years ago04/14/14 at 7:52 am (UTC) Is the auto play file in the root CD directory?
