For those of us that run into drives that have autorun disabled I suggest that you leave TC installed on the USB key just the way USB installer had installed them so that starttc.exe will still run but you can have your cake & eat it too. You could change the open= line to starttc.exe deleting the rest & then the USB Key will autorun on systems where it's not disabled. On systems where autorun is disabled you browse over to the USB Key drive & launch starttc.exe manually like before. If you want the shell to be as above & want both capabilites then take out Tools\ every where you see it above in your autorun.inf then you'll have this autorun.inf configured nearly identically as above & can still launch TC manually on systems that has autorun disabled. | For those of us that run into drives that have autorun disabled I suggest that you leave TC installed on the USB key just the way USB installer had installed them so that starttc.exe will still run but you can have your cake & eat it too.

During this tutorial, we'll consider your USB drive as being Z:\
- Create a directory named "Tools" on the root of your USB key/drive --> "Z:\Tools"
- Copy the total commander folder (Totalcmd) inside the "Tools" folder (after this, Totalcmd.exe should be located at "Z:\Tools\TotalCmd\TotalCmd.exe")
- Create an autorun.inf file as shown under in the root of your USB key/drive --> Z:\autorun.inf
Autorun.inf content
[Autorun] label=Total Commander USB Key icon=Tools\TotalCmd\Totalcmd.exe action=Total Commander open=Tools\TotalCmd\Totalcmd.exe /L=%%COMMANDER_PATH%%\..\.. /R=%%SYSTEMDRIVE%% /P=L Shell=TotalCmd Shell\TotalCmd=&Total Commander Shell\TotalCmd\Command=Tools\TotalCmd\Totalcmd.exe /L=%%COMMANDER_PATH%%\..\.. /R=%%SYSTEMDRIVE%% /P=L
Just unplug your USB key/drive and plug it back... Now TotalCmd Autostarts ! It will open your USB key/drive root folder on the left panel, and the local system drive on the right panel.
This works under Windows XP SP2.
That's all folks !
