Hi all,
It's posible to make a memory card to run a program like autorun.inf of
Windows?

Thanks,
Catalin
 
I created all this folders 2577,1824,4000,10003,10005 with autorun.exe
inside but it's still not working. I use WinCE 4.2 Spanish Version and the
name of memory card is Tarjeta de almacenamiento.
Any idea?
 
SHGetAutoRunPath return \Tarjeta de almacenamiento\2577\autorun.exe

This folder exists but autorun doesn't copy to Windows folder and not run.
 
The folder name is based on the processor architecture rather than the
device language. However the implementation of storage card autorun varies a
lot between devices and depends on the OEM implementing it correctly. Fact
is that it just doesn't work on some devices. You could check with your
device manufacturer if they implement their own autorun method which may
work reliably. For example the likes of Intermec and Symbol have subtly
different autorun implementations.

As Peter said, verify with the device OEM that this works at all. It's
implemented in the shell, so it's not at all unusual for it not to be
implemented at all by an OEM. You don't expect it to be copied to \Windows,
generally. It would normally just be executed in-place.
