I like this popup that asks me what I want to use when I insert a blank DVD or a DVD to play.

But something's gone wrong.
ie: it now has 2 entries for Nero's start smart manager.
1 has an icon, the other doesn't.
the one without the icon pops up a 2nd window to browse for the program Iwant to use.
the one with the Nero's start smart icon fires up start smart just fine.

I'd like to remove the items that don't have icons attached. There are more, but start smart is my primary that I'd like to fix.
 
Download TweakUi from Microsoft's website :

After downloading and installing, Open it > Expand "My computer" > Expand
"Autoplay" > Click on "Handlers"
If delete button is disabled for that handler, click edit button and uncheck
all the items under "Supported media"

Agghhhh...
They all have icons in Tweakui. Now what do I do ? No way to tell what's the good one, and what's the bad one.

As i say, Click Edit and uncheck all options for one Nero's Start Smart.
Then check if the other one is working by inserting a DVD.
If the item is working,OK. If not, go back there and recheck the options you
unchecked. And then uncheck all options for the second one.
