Title: Flash Drive - NEED Help
Post by jshapan on Apr 10^th, 2011, 9:47pm

As we cannot have an auto-run work on Flash Drives. We cannot figure out how to name the main launch file more clearly for the 500 people who are receiving these drives.

There are 7 pieces that show up ... and the one that launches says: CDFE_g_e Is there a way to rename this to say ViewTourColorado or even just TourColorado ....

Please advises asap direct to my email on file ... as we are at deadline and did not realize this would be such a problem.

Thank you Janet

Yes you can rename the file to anothername.exe (the important thing is it ends as .exe) or also clickme.exe

the original name is important when the autorun works (CD, DVDs) but as nowadays Win disables the flash, a rename will just help

p.s. Windows in its standard settings will show the names without extension, e.g. CDFE_e instead CDFE_e.exe and YourGivenName instead YourGivenName.exe but it is important that when you rename you type the .exe at the end of the name

I renamed it and put the exe at the end, but the files that show up for the when I create the "autorun CD in temporary folder..." still only shows CDFE_g_e application and is the only file that will launch the program when loaded on the Flash Drive.

I don't understand how what you said below helps me when the files are loaded on the Flash Drive.

rename this file after you create the file set in the temporary folder, or do the rename directly into the flash drive
