Disable Autoplay When USB Inserted

Plug in a USB drive in Windows 7 and Windows Media Player starts automatically. I find this irritating. I finally killed it buy doing the following. All steps may not be needed but I hate auto play of any kind so fine.

Type Win Key then type "group" select edit group policy.
Expand Administrative Templates and select "All Settings".
Find the two "turn off autoplay" entries and enable them.


Type Win Key then type "autoplay" and start it.
Remove the check in upper left corner.


I don't care which of these I did not need to do. I'm just glad to be rid of it.

Edit: Media Player has started popping up again. Go to Services and stop/disable Shell Hardware Detection. Hope this finally does it.
